Booth 140
Capturing the color, excitement, vitality and romance of life in the West, Larry Pirnie exemplifies the spirit of Montana through his paintings. He has spent over three decades living and painting in Montana, yet he is widely known and collected throughout the country, because his art is unmistakably Pirnie.
As a boy, Larry met Norman Rockwell and acted on his recommendation to attend the Pratt Institute in New York. He worked in advertising for many years before giving up a corporate position to live his dream of being a cowboy artist.
About the Artist
He has often been a featured artist at the prestigious Western Masters art show associated with the C.M. Russell Museum, as well as the Rendezvous Royale at the Buffalo Bill Historical Center. Pirnie is also featured among an esteemed collection of contemporary trendsetters in Western Art at the Booth Western Art Museum in Cartersville, Georgia, which houses the largest permanent exhibition space for Western art in the country. Pirnie has found joy in authoring a book to tell his story, and has collaborated with his friend, renowned cowboy poet Paul Zarzyski on other published works.
