Contemporary Western Art
Rick Meoli

www.contemporarywesternart.com
Contemporary Western Art Company was the vision of Rick Meoli that began in 2004.  Being an accomplished professional photographer, Rick realized that through his eyes and lens, his perception of the west differed greatly from most photographer's work.  He wanted to do much more than simply document the iconic images of the west.  Rick's work is dedicated to defining moments in western lives lived hard and lived well.  To each image he adds a digital art finish that fuses color and texture to further enhance the visual impact.  The synergy created by the fusion of reality and imagination makes each image timeless.
