“The Traditional Cowboy Artists are doing a fantastic job of implementing their fellowship program. As their first recipient of the fellowship I was thoroughly impressed with the program. I cannot put into words the value of this opportunity. I would encourage any aspiring artist/craftsman to take every opportunity to work with the members of the TCAA!”

— Braidie Butters
