Many talented western and native wildlife artists live, work or
play in the Bighorn Basin of Wyoming. We invite you to visit each of our
featured artist’s web page to view his or her collection of Western Art by Wyoming
Artists. We will be adding other selected Western Artists and their offerings
to the Wyoming Artists Group website. Make this site one of your favorites
and visit it often for updates.
Ann Hanson - Shell Valley has
its share of talented artists, including one of the horse lover’s favorite
artists, Ann Hanson. Ann’s original art is on display in many
exquisite settings, including private homes and lodges across the nation and
overseas, as well as in the prestigious Buffalo Bill Historical Center Museum
in Cody, Wyoming. Her work appears regularly in such notable publications as
Western Horseman, Art of the West, and other well-known publications. Click here to visit Ann’s

Michael Kopriva - Wyoming
native Mike Kopriva has consistently won many competitions for his work in acrylic
and watercolor painting, stone sculpture, and metal sculpture. A few of his
more notable commissions include an acrylic 8' x 22' mural depicting scenes
from Wyoming at the Wyoming State Capitol in Cheyenne, a 4' x 20' steel mural
placed in the Rockville, MD Department of Transportation illustrating the
history of transportation, and a
12" x 20" acrylic painting of the USS Wyoming Trident submarine
commissioned as a gift for the officers.

Big Horn Mountain meadow, commissioned in 2012 by a private party.

Ainsley McNeely - A native of Alabama, Ainsley McNeely, first came to the Wyoming/Montana area
to paint in the 1990’s and liked it so much she bought property and began
designing a new studio. She is known to the public for the colorful posters
she designed for the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs and
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, as well as the 2001-2002 Alabama Duck
Stamp. Ainsley’s wildlife paintings, sporting art
and portraits appear in galleries, shows and competitions throughout the U. S.,
winning awards in such shows as the Louisiana Wildfowl Festival, The Art Show
