In these Cowboy pictures, I utilised photographic imagery appropriated from TV and the internet, which I then digitally printed over a hand painted ground, combining computer mark-making with human brushwork. I have appropriated the appropriator… I took the imagery from Richard Prince’s Cowboys. In Prince’s case, he created an artwork by taking a picture of a picture (the Marlboro ad) without any human touch. In my work, I took a picture of that picture and added the human touch, making my print humanly unique, whereas Prince’s was not.
