context_page_description: John Ross "Jock" Ewing Sr. is a character in the popular American television series Dallas. He was originally played by Jim Davis on the show from 1978 to 1981, and later as a young man by Dale Midkiff in the made-for-TV movie prequel The Early Years. Jock founded Ewing Oil in 1930 and was the patriarch of the Ewing family.
context_section_description: After Jim Davis' death, artist Ro Kim painted a portrait of the actor in his role as Jock Ewing. The portrait became a focal point of the Dallas set and was featured in a number of episodes. The painting hung in the home of Dallas star Larry Hagman, who played antagonist J.R. Ewing for many years until he decided to sell the portrait at auction in spring 2011. The Southfork Ranch in Parker, Texas, where Dallas exteriors were shot, features a different Jock Ewing portrait as a focal point of its "Jock's Living Room".
  Jock Ewing as played by Jim Davis drove the same 1978 Lincoln Mark V with the license plate EWING 1 for all four seasons in which he starred, the vehicle is still on the grounds of the Southfork ranch to this day, parked in one of the gift shops.
