Bill Anton grew up in Chicago but developed an early fascination with the American West. In 1982, he began participating in cattle roundups on ranches near Flagstaff and Prescott, Arizona, while simultaneously pursuing painting full time. His landscapes often include the cowboy, a figure tied to the mythology of the American West and to broader ideas about American life. Anton describes his work as an attempt to convey mood and emotion: “If I’m recording anything, I’m recording how I feel about the West.”
