Title: Martin Grelle (1954-), September Search
Medium: oil on canvas
Dimensions: 40 x 30
Frame dimensions: 48 7/8 x 38 7/8 x 3
Notes: The painting “September Search” is set down in the hill country of south central Texas. Usually in Texas, July & August are tremendously hot & dry, which is why the grass in the foreground is so dry in color. In September, however, rains begin to return and it seems to turn everything around (especially “attitudes”). In a lot of areas where cattle have been grazed through the summer, cowboys go out to find where they are and see which need to be worked on again or moved to another place. All these things have come together in “September Search”. — Martin Grelle

The painting appears to be in very good condition. The frame appears to be in good condition with a half inch loss at the lower right corner and very minor general wear and tear throughout.
