Painting the Macy Ranch — A Look Back at a Historic Texas Landscape

In the late 1990s and early 2000s, I had permission to paint on the Macy Ranch near Post, Texas — part of the historic Slaughter ranching legacy dating back to 1901. The land stretches across roughly 100,000 acres of red‑rock breaks, deep drop‑offs, and pockets of live water fed by the Double Mountain Fork of the Brazos.

Bob Macy, a descendant of John B. Slaughter, expanded the ranch’s cattle operations and built a respected Western art collection that included works from Cowboy Artists of America. It was the kind of place where ranch work and art quietly intersected.

Frequent trips to the Macy Ranch, and the inspiration I drew from it, shaped much of my early Western landscape work. I’m sharing more of these stories and images as part of my ongoing Where Arrows Have Landed Legacy Series, documenting the places and moments that influenced a portion of my art career.

Thank you for following along. More entries coming soon.

Bluebonnet Cascade is an archive painting from my earlier work, but its theme is still a favorite among collectors.
I’m now accepting new custom commissions for bluebonnets, landscapes, or a scene that’s meaningful to you.

A quick look at the demo I recently taught at the Mineola League of the Arts. Always enjoy sharing the process.

A few folks reached out about the moonlit painting I shared earlier, so I went ahead and listed it on eBay. I put this short video together to show it a bit more clearly. If it’s one you’ve been watching for, it’s now available:

I’ve gently crafted this night scene into its final form.
It carries a quiet stillness, and I’m sharing it here with a short poem that accompanies the mood it settled into.
When Evening Settles into Silence 9x12 oil

When evening settles into silence,
the world softens its edges,
and the water holds the sky
like a secret it promised to keep.

While the moon lowers its voice
to a whisper
and nothing moves but the quiet,
slipping ever gently across the land,
reminding the heart
what stillness is for.

Autumn Mood · 30x40 oil
Painted in 2006 and inspired by scenes from Lost Maples State Natural Area. Even after twenty years, I’m still drawn to the quiet water, the softened light, and the calm atmosphere that originally inspired the piece. It remains one of those paintings that carries its mood with it.
Commission paintings available.

I’ve been grateful for the recent support and new followers — thank you. This is my latest 4x6 miniature, “Evening’s Quiet Glow.” I wanted to explore that gentle transition of light when the day softens and the landscape settles into a calm hush. It’s a small piece, but one with a quiet mood I really enjoyed painting. Link in the comments to a video of the painting and to my eBay auction for this piece.
