Watercolor artist, Sandy Wisecup and Cowgirl Poet, Sydney Johnson are currently working on a book featuring Sandy's watercolor paintings and Sydney's cowgirl poetry. "Sisters In Saddles" is a tribute to cowgirls,  love for the West and for the horses that play a major roll in the lives of  all 'cowgirls'. Both Author and Artist's passion is evident in this compilation of visual and verbal love letters about the life each lives  and treasures. Sydney V. Johnson, a working cowgirl, lives  a lifestyle that hasn't changed much from the ways of the original cowboy of the West of the 1800's. She spends her days in the saddle high in the mountains of western Colorado during the Summer months and in the desert country of Utah through the Winter.  Long days are spent riding side by side, with her husband and cowboy partner, Woody,  tending several hundred head of cattle. The end of each summer's day finds them at home in a small log cabin where modern conveniences are absent. Much of Sydney's poetry is penned  by the light of a kerosene lantern and all are inspired by her life's experiences.    SandyWisecup,on the other hand, chooses to live with the comforts and conveniences of our modern times.  She and her husband and partner, Roy, raise Hereford cattle, Quarter Horses and Miniature Horses on their small ranch in South Central Utah. Sandy's  studio sits at the top end of a small green valley which  overlooks    the awe inspiring beauty of Utah's desert canyons bordered by mountain peaks. Horses, cattle, ranch life, family, neighbors and the scenery bring inspiration and an endless supply of subjects to paint and sculpt.    Not only are many of Sandy Wisecup's watercolor paintings  inspired by her sister Sydney's  Cowgirl Poetry, but Sydney is also often the Cowgirl you will find featured in Sandy's paintings.			____________       "Sisters In Saddles" Cowgirls: A Glance through Art and Rhyme Sydney Johnson  Sandy Wisecup ____________________ We're Sisters in saddles!
