more about the Pronghorn
Bud Boller Sentinel of the Plains. It depicts a Pronghorn.
The pronghorn is a unique North American mammal. Its Latin name, Antilocapra americana, means “American goat-antelope,” but it is not a member of the goat or the antelope family and it is not related to the antelopes found in Africa.
Bud Boller was an enrolled member of the Shoshoni Indian Tribe and was born in 1928 in Fort Collins, Colorado.
Bub was a sculptor and painter whose work reflects his love of the history of the West as well as his Shoshone Indian heritage. He depicted many aspects of western life including Indian battle scenes, heroic cowboys and Indians, and wildlife. His themes were often based on Christianity with authentic Biblical scenes that he had carefully researched.
Bud, whose formal name was Lewis, had worked as a rancher, rodeo rider, and store manager as well as artist. He had won several awards from invitational shows such as the Heard Museum, Phoenix, AZ; the Inter-Tribal Indian Ceremonial, Gallup, NM; and the Death Valley 49’ers Encampment Invitational Art Show, Death Valley, CA. In 1995, the Wyoming Governor’s Award honored his work for Art. His sculptures are in Israel, Spain, Mexico, Japan, and throughout the United States.
He lived on a ranch in the Wind River Reservation near Dubois, Wyoming until his passing.
