The Cowgirl takes us on a ride across vanilla ice cream shores. 

In Will Cotton’s candyland, desire and excess reign supreme. Our first print collaboration, The Cowgirl, is taken from a series of oil paintings that introduced a new cast of characters to the landscape. The titular cowgirl looks like a 50s pin-up star with her bedazzled costume, Old Hollywood waves, and million-dollar smile. She finds natural kinship with the elusive unicorn – both are "untamable, all-powerful creatures, desired by all."

Will’s impossible fantasies are rendered in realistic detail – like the muscle definition of the mythical creature in full gallop. His balance of traditional painting techniques and post-modern garishness is faithfully recreated using archival pigments. In line with the ‘more is more’ logic of Will’s land of desire, the print is finished with two silkscreen glitter layers on the cowgirl’s pistol and candy heart.

The cowgirl is fully at home and in her candyland habitat. Armed with a gun and candy heart bludgeon she answers to no one, nor any system of subjugating moral code imposed upon her.
