Cowgirl Art Prints & Paintings

Cowgirl Artwork by Caya Crum

Most of the cowgirl artwork here comes from one series Caya keeps returning to: portraits of rodeo queens and ranch women — Dorothy in pink spurs, Lana, Tavi in the red hat, Emma, Hanna with the bolo, Billie, Mildred and Mattie — each one a real woman or a real type, painted big and flat and unbothered. Around them sit the action pieces: Martha and Mildred on bucking horses, a roping scene, a cowgirl bronc rider with her hat flying, a pen-and-ink self portrait of the artist dressed for the rodeo. Every cowgirl print is made from the original painting and printed to order in Fort Worth.

The original cowgirl paintings are here too — the Croissant Cowgirl trio and whatever else is on the easel — for anyone who came looking for a cowgirl painting rather than a print.

Cowgirl Wall Art That Holds a Room

These hang as cowgirl wall art in the places a strong woman would put them: a bedroom, a dressing room, an office that could use some nerve, a bar. One rodeo queen over a dresser does the job on her own; three of the portraits in a row make a wall people photograph. The smaller sizes work as cowgirl posters for a dorm or a first apartment, and the larger ones are made to be framed and kept.

The Cowgirl

The Cowgirl is iconic, an elusive woman who understands horses and is usually more content around horses than men. With Cowboys, they still need a woman around. Sorry fellas. Cowgirls are independent and strong willed.

Keep exploring: the other half of the duo is in cowboy art, the arena scenes ride in rodeo art, her boots kick around cowboy boot art, the horses are in horse art, the moody side of the West is Cowboy Gothic, and the whole range hangs in western art. About the painter: Caya Crum.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is cowgirl wall art?

Cowgirl wall art is artwork of women in the West — rodeo queens, ranch riders, bronc riders, ropers — and the things that go with them: boots, hats, horses and a lot of sky. At Crum Art it is mostly portraits by Caya Crum, painted in bold flat color, sold as prints and as the original paintings.

Who makes the cowgirl art at Crum Art?

Caya Crum paints nearly all of it, with a few pieces by Betsy Crum. The Crum family has been making and printing art in Fort Worth, Texas since 1996. Browse by artist in Caya Crum art and Betsy Crum art.

Do you sell original cowgirl paintings, or only prints?

Both. The prints on this page are made from Caya's original paintings and printed to order. Her originals that are still for sale — cowgirls included — are listed in original paintings, each one of one, picked up at the Fort Worth studio or shipped insured.

Are cowgirl art prints good gifts?

They are among the most-gifted prints we make — for ranch owners, rodeo fans, barrel racers, daughters, best friends, and anyone who would rather be around horses than people.

What makes a cowgirl a cowgirl?

Independence and a strong will, mostly — and an understanding of horses that usually leaves her more content around them than around people. That is who you will find in this cowgirl art collection.
