| Charlie Dye was born in Canon City, Colorado, in 1906. He worked as a cowboy in Colorado, Arizona, and California before attending the Art Institute of Chicago in 1927. Dye then headed to New York where he enjoyed commercial success as an illustrator. Feeling there was a need for quality western art, Dye moved to Denver in where he was a partner in the Colorado Institute of Art. In 1960 he gave up teaching and illustration work and moved to Sedona, Arizona, enjoying more success as a cowboy-western genre painter. While in Arizona Dye helped found the Cowboy Artists of America. For more information on Charlie Dye and other artists we represent, please visit the artist index on our gallery website |
