About Kaye Burian:
      Kaye was honored with the Steel Dust Award for best of show at the 
      American Quarter Horse Associations, America’s Horse in Art Show and Sale 
      in Amarillo, TX in 2013. Her work has been featured in Western Art 
      Collector Magazine frequently, and most recently in their "Art of the 
      Horse" feature, May 2014.
    Being born and raised on a ranch in western 
    North Dakota, Kaye Burian, finds her western way of life easy to portray. 
    Many times she has drawn from her rodeo and ranching background to give her 
    paintings an authentic and realistic look. Ranching is still a part of her 
    life as she and her husband, Myran, own and operate Lazy 77 Ranch, near 
    Manning, North Dakota. Their two sons, Paige and Harden have been active in 
    the rodeo arena and ranching business.
    Kaye graduated with a Bachelor of Science 
    Degree from Dickinson State University, in Dickinson, ND. After teaching art 
    and elementary education for six years, Kaye turned to painting full time at 
    her studio at the ranch.
    Their ranch is home to a commercial red and 
    black angus herd of cattle, they raise and use American Quarter Horses in 
    their ranching operation.   These surroundings help Kaye encounter the 
    natural world and its inhabitants face-to-face and bring that experience to 
    her art.  Their emotions help her portray her subjects with fidelity and 
    realism.
