Kathy Wipfler is a name well known to all serious students and collectors of the western landscape. Respected for quality and integrity on both sides of the easel, she paints what she loves and knows best the Wyoming country within a one hundred mile radius of her studio. Kathy knows much more about horses than I do. If you ask her a serious question about horses or painting, you will get a short honest answer. She has generously taken time from her own valuable work to organize our subjects - horses, mules and men. We could not have done this without her and we are most grateful.
