Now through the end of June, the paintings & watercolors of world famous outdoor/western artist, Jim Noble, are on display in the Heritage Arts Center in Horse Cave.  The Gallery is open Tuesday through Saturday, 12 noon to 5PM.

Jim Noble’s family immigrated from England in the 1800’s and settled in Franklin County Kentucky. Years later they moved to Texas and were involved in ranching for the next 100 years.  Jim’s great grandfather served in the 1st Texas Confederate Calvary.

An outdoors man and pioneer at heart, Jim has studied and experienced the tales of the old west.  In loving them, he has lived them.  

During his early years, Jim drew and painted the familiarities of his surroundings….the wild life, the discarded tools and dwellings of three generations.  He absorbed the tales of the early days and learned to love the people and their way of life.  Homesteads of the past turn up in Jim’s paintings;  houses and barns, full of memories, seem to have each item of everyday use in place. While the people have vanished, their way of life, though almost forgotten, is now remembered on canvas.

Jim Noble has owned and operated Noble Galleries in Durango, Colorado since 1968.  His paintings and bronzes are in collections in almost every state and many foreign countries as well as several museums.  Jim has now returned to Kentucky for a one-man show at the Heritage Art Gallery in Horse Cave, Kentucky.
