NATHAN TRAMPE
Contemporary Western Artist
Exploring the intersection of the Old West and modern Street Art
Featured Work
33×33×2.5
Oil on Canvas
The outlaw. You read what you can in his eyes, but can eyes tell the whole story? One thing is for certain: the mask doesn’t hide him. It makes him stand out.
This piece measures 33”x33”x2.5” framed with a custom built and painted float frame created entirely by Nathan. The frames are built as an extension of the artwork - rather than containing the artwork as frames often do, the frames for these paintings intend to amplify the artwork and change the nature of the piece. No longer is it just an image on a flat canvas, but rather an entity all it’s own, inspired by street art that is almost never constrained to a completely flat surface.
Wild Bill Hickok—trapped between history and myth, just as this portrait is caught between the past and the present. Like the layers of street art surrounding him, his legend has been painted over, redefined, and reimagined. But who was the man beneath it all—and does it even matter anymore?
This piece measures 48”x48”x2” framed with a custom built and painted float frame created entirely by Nathan. The frames are built as an extension of the artwork - rather than containing the artwork as frames often do, the frames for these paintings intend to amplify the artwork and change the nature of the piece.
