Fort Worth Stockyards — Pen & Ink Art by Caya Crum
Caya draws the Stockyards the way it actually accumulates in your memory: the big TEXAS STOCKYARDS lettering in warm brown, the Stockyards Hotel, the Drover, boots and cattle and weathered signs packed corner to corner in black ink. It's the whole historic district on one sheet, hand-drawn, with the brown lettering glowing like the brick does at five o'clock.
The longer it hangs, the more your guests find. That's a Stockyards trait — the district works the same way.
Where It'll Work in Your House
Kitchens, bar areas, and offices take the black-and-white beautifully, and it anchors a Cowtown gallery wall next to its sibling, the Fort Worth Icons pen & ink. A go-to gift for Stock Show regulars and Western-history people.
Questions
What are the Fort Worth Stockyards? The historic livestock district where Fort Worth earned the name Cowtown — brick streets, the daily cattle drive, and a hundred-plus years of signs, saloons, and stories. This print gathers the highlights.
Icons or Stockyards — which pen & ink first? Icons covers the whole town; this one goes deep on the district. North Side loyalists start here.
Who drew it? Caya Crum, working in Texas. Original family artwork, printed to order — more of Caya's drawings here.

Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes does this print come in?
Our fine art prints are available in multiple sizes including 8x10 unframed matted to 11x14, 11x14 unframed, 16x20, 18x24, and 24x36. Each size ships ready to frame, making it easy to find the right fit for your wall.
Is this print good for a western or ranch-style living room?
Absolutely. Crum Art prints work beautifully in western living rooms, ranch house walls, and collected interiors. The editorial quality and distinct Texas point of view make them strong anchor pieces for a rustic western or Lone Star-inspired home.
How is this print made and what materials are used?
Every Crum Art print is produced on 100% cotton rag paper using archival pigment inks — the same standard used in fine art galleries. Built to last without fading, and hand-signed by the artist before it leaves our Fort Worth studio.
Can this print be part of a gallery wall?
Yes — many Crum Art prints are part of series and are designed to group together as a statement western gallery wall, or hang individually as a standalone piece. Each image is sized to fit standard frames for easy styling.
Will this look like an original painting or a print?
Crum Art takes the scanning and photographing of original paintings seriously — we work to capture the texture of the canvas or paper the original was created on, so that texture shows through in the print. Combined with the cotton rag paper's own subtle surface and the hand-signing, many customers say they cannot tell if it's an original or a print. That's intentional. These are not flat digital reproductions — they are fine art prints that carry the soul of the original.

Product FAQ
Can you still see cattle in the Stockyards?
Twice a day — the Fort Worth Herd cattle drive still runs down Exchange Avenue, longhorns and all. The district earns its ink.
What room suits the ink style?
Bars, kitchens, and offices — black-and-white with the brown lettering warms up wood-heavy rooms especially.
Who's the right Fort Worthian to give it to?
North Side loyalists, Western history buffs, and anyone whose out-of-town guests always get taken to the same three blocks. These blocks.
What completes the pen & ink pair?
Caya's Fort Worth Icons — the whole town to this print's famous district. Two drawings, one city, zero disagreements.
