Red Headed Stranger — a Cowboy Print by Caya Crum

He's the one people stop on. Caya painted him high-contrast and straight-on — white hat, red scarf, blue shirt — and gave him an expression that has clearly decided something and isn't going to share it.

He isn't anybody in particular. That's part of why he works: everyone who buys him seems to know exactly who he reminds them of.

Where He'll Work in Your House

He's our most reliable single piece. Over a desk he sets the tone for the whole room. In a gallery wall he's the one the others line up around. Offices and dens first, then entryways and living rooms — and he's been photographed over a dining table more than once, which is how he ended up in the dining room collection too.

Painted by Caya Crum in Texas and printed to order, one at a time — her other paintings are here.

The thing about that expression is that nobody reads it the same way twice. Half the people who take him home have already decided he's somebody they knew, and they're never in agreement about who. If he isn't yours, somebody in western art, man cave decor or wall art for guys will be.

Product FAQ

What is the Red Headed Stranger wearing?

A white hat with the brim pulled low, a red scarf at the throat, and a blue shirt. Caya Crum painted him high-contrast and straight on, with nothing else in the frame to distract from the face.

Why is he called the Red Headed Stranger?

It is the name the painting itself carried from the start, and it stuck because it fits. He is a stranger in the literal sense. He is not a portrait of anyone, and the expression he wears keeps whatever he has decided entirely to himself.

What is he thinking?

Nobody agrees, and that is the appeal. People who take him home tend to arrive already certain he is somebody they used to know, and no two of them name the same man.

Who is he a good gift for?

The man who would never pick out art for himself and will have a great deal to say about what you picked. He reads western without tipping into costume, which is a narrower line to walk than it sounds, and it is why he ends up over more desks than anything else in the series.

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.

What sizes does this print come in?

Our fine art prints are available in standard rectangle and square sizes. Rectangles: 8x10 unframed matted to 11x14, 11x14 unframed, 16x20, 18x24, and 24x36. Squares: 8x8 unframed matted to 12x12, 12x12 unframed, 16x16, 20x20, and 24x24. Each size ships ready to frame, making it easy to find the right fit for your wall.

How do I make a gallery wall with art prints?

Start with an anchor piece and build outward — many Crum Art prints are part of series designed to group together as a statement gallery wall, or hang individually as standalone pieces. Since every image is sized to fit standard frames, mixing sizes is easy: lay the arrangement out on the floor first, keep about two to three inches between frames, and center the whole grouping at eye level.
