Pop Art meets the Wild West
Real-life ranch sorting world champion Billy Schenck is known as the 'Warhol of the West' for his exciting fusion of Navajo culture, modern-day cowgirls and tongue-in-cheek humour.
His debut UK tour to launch The New West in November 2018 was followed by an appearance in GQ magazine. His work also featured in the comedy-drama film Ideal Home, starring Paul Rudd and Steve Coogan.
Billy, who is credited as the founder of the Western Pop Art movement, says: "I wanted to do with my paintings what Sergio Leone had done with film. No other genre in the last 200 years can compete."
