John Wayne Gritcast - Jon Flaming
Join us on a tour of Texas painter Jon Flaming's studio and sit down with us as we chat about his Modern Cowboy series and his love of John Wayne.
Jon Flaming is, much like the Lone Star State itself, vast—in interests and richness, in talent and good talk. His studio speaks to a background that is equally diverse.
In the way that John Wayne broke with how the “cowboy” was seen on screen, Modern Cowboy follows Flaming into new territory. To Flaming, art is expressive, but more significantly, a bridge that allows him to build relationships with people from all sectors of life. “Some things, kind of like John Wayne, are universal in their impact,” he says. “People like different things, but I think the effect of art—no matter what type, music, painting, whatever—is the same. It reaches others.” And like John Wayne, Jon Flaming has the extraordinary ability to do a lot with little.
