MEET THE ARTIST, BOB KERBY
Little did Robert E. Kerby know when he left his Colorado
home at the age of 17 to become a cowboy it would be the
beginning of a love and devotion to the cowboy way of life and
The American West. It was while drawing in the bunkhouses on
ranches in Northern New Mexico the artistic spark was ignited.
Living the life of a cowboy in the American West working with
horses, cattle and surrounded by beautiful country Kerby
gained firsthand knowledge of his subject matter. He now is
recognized as one of the best and most authentic contemporary
cowboy artists in America today.
Bob paints exclusively in oils and is represented in public
and private collections from New York to Australia. His work
has been featured on magazine covers and has been reproduced
in the form of limited edition collector prints, post cards,
posters, Christmas cards, cookbooks and calendars. It is
estimated that over 3 million people a year view his famous
Range Riders appointment calendars.
 Good horses, roping, riding and the American West have
always been his true passion. Kerby takes pride in his western
heritage and wishes to extend this pride to you through his
work.
We hope you enjoy the western art of Robert E. Kerby. It is
Bob's pleasure to share with you his work in the form of
his calendars, Limited edition collector prints, Christmas
& note cards along with his Range Riders Cookin'
cookbooks.
Born and raised in Colorado Bob now lives on a small ranch
outside Kearney, Nebraska where he maintains the Longhorn
Studio. (Kearney is located in the middle of Nebraska on
Interstate 80) He paints exclusively in oils and is committed
to preserving the life and times of the contemporary
cowboy.
One of Bob's passions is his horses and team roping.
During the Summer you'll find him on one of his geldings
roping a few steers in the Kerby arena. His love for horses,
the west and the cowboy way of life, can be shared and enjoyed
at this web site.
