JOE DE YONG a COMING YOUNG MONTANA
ARTIST WHO KNOWS THE WEST HE PAINTS

Making a bucking horse look like
he's bucking rather than posing for
his picture-that's one place where
the artist who has seer the bucking
horse from above and below has an
advantage. And that is one of the
places where Joe DeYong, Montana's
gifted young painter of western stud
les, tops his profession.
Charlie Russell did a lot for Joe
(Socrates taught Plato, you know,
but it is wrong to say DeYong is of
the Russell school of art. Russell is
the only member of that particular
school. He founded it without pre-
dec~essors; he will leave it without
successors. DeYong studied with
Russell, lived with him and loves
him. In this association DeYong's
own particular talents, different from
those of any other under the sun,
ripened and matured.
Now, up at Choteau, in his own
studio, DeYong is turning out west
ern pictures-things he has seen for
himself with the unerring eye of art.
And actioni Say, the regular west
ern fellows who have seen his paint
ings declare every figure on the IAN
vas seems on the move. Horses,
COWS, sheep, wild game. You can see
the ripping muscles under the hide.
And his backgrounds are true because
they are taken from nature itself.
Work for DIR. Butler
One of Joe's commissions is a series
of five pictures for DR.. w. j.. Butler,
state veterinarian. These will pre-
serve much of the old west. First
comes the COW horse and its rider.
Then an early day trapper and his
packhorse. A freight team and the
freighter will be a third. Next comes
a cavalry horse of the range times
and then a sheep outfit. Can you
beat it?
DeYong has lost his hearing and
speaks mainly in the Indian sign
language. His eloquence at this,
however, is not to be compared with
that greater sign language that he
transfers to c%anvases that will live.
He's had a most interesting life.
Let him tell it:
81 think I must have started MAX
ing marks with a pencil about the

Among the Indians
my father spent some time in
Indian territory in the SOS and when
I was four years old he returned to
that section and went into business.
1t was, of course, an Indian and COW
country, so I grew up with a liking
for Indians, COW men, horses and
81 knocked around quite q bit even
when small and always worked
around cattle when not in school.
When six years old I struck one of
the local COW men for work during
