Roger Archibald |
|
Born and raised in Arizona, as a young
boy, Roger would help his brother-in-law break colts and doctor
cattle. He became a member of the Arizona Junior Rodeo Association
during high school and competed in bull riding and team roping events.
After graduating from high school, Roger worked full time for various
ranches and feedlots.
While Roger is primarily a self-taught artist, he has taken art classes at Phoenix College and Scottsdale Artist School. His work has been featured in the Western Horseman, Art of the West, and Western Cowman magazines. Roger's accomplishments include first place awards at the Arizona National Stock Show Cowboy Classic and the Western Artists of American Branding Iron Show. He is a stickler for detail and authenticity and says, "When a cowboy or rancher gives me that stamp of approval I know I have done my job." Roger still enjoys team roping when time allows and occasionally finds time to help friends gather and work cattle. Roger is dedicated to documenting the western way of life, which is still very much alive today and is shared by many hard working ranchers and ranch hands. His goal is to capture the cowboy and cowgirl at work and at play. He also wishes to share his images with those who live the western life and with those who wish they did. |
