| The Works of Stephen Naegle - A Catalogue, Page 2 |
| The main purpose of the catalogue is to make a master list of any known work by Stephen Naegle. I might say that copies of the book, Masters of Western Art by Mary Carroll Nelson with many Naegle painting images are readily available through Ebay, Amazon.com and through private galleries and booksellers. Visitors to this site, especially anyone with works by Mr. Naegle, please contact me to have your Naegle's listed, and if you are so kind to provide an image of the work, as many are. Thank you, Bruce Dickey Keeping your name and location private is fine, by simply listing the work as Private Collection. |

A photo of this watercolor is on Page 81 of the book, Masters of Western Art by Mary Carol Nelson, Watson/Guptill Publications New York. Permission sought from the publisher or owner of this work to display image. |
| . 8. Montana Homestead This painting is an abandoned house in a wilderness area. It sports three chimneys, a lean-to room out back, and a wooden yard fence. This landscape has an incredible mountain range in the background. Very well done. Watercolor on paper, 14" by 21". May be found on page 155 of the book, Masters of Western Art by Mary Carol Nelson. Permission sought from the publisher or owner of this work to display image. |
| 9. Frontier Creek In the distance an overcast sky hovers over a sprawling mountain range in late evening. The fading light readily reflects off the rivulets of the creek. The darkened right foreground is covered in conifers reaching skyward. Oil on canvas and is 36" by 48" in size. This landscape of Frontier Creek is also portrayed on Page 154 of the book, Masters of Western Art by Mary Caroll Nelson, Watson/Guptill Publications in New York. Naegle Family Collection, used with permission. David Naegle, Utah Trip #2, October 2006 |
12. White River This painting is of a large tree with a incredibly heavy brush thicket. Despite the title, there is no river evident so it must denote location. Stephen did a thicket series during his Masters of Fine Arts program at Utah State University. It was to be a recurring theme in his work. This two color lithograph of an original watercolor, quantity of fifty, size 22 by 28 inches, Masters of Western Art, page 82, original painting is water and tusche on toned paper. David Naegle furnished this image, January 2007 Naegle Family Collection, Used with Permission |
13. Castle on a Hill Oil painting perched on an easle in a photo of Naegle's Studio depicts a lone castle on an outcroping of rock emerging from the terrain There is a forground of forest trees seen from above with a heavily clouded sky and distant skyline. It is an assumption that this is his work, but based on the fact it is located in Naegle's studio, I feel it is one of his. Also, some of the art on the walls could later be classified as his work, especially one of a barn wall laden with wagon team tack and hardware. I think they are called single-trees? That's for later. From the book, Masters of Western Art, page 83. The author is Mary Carol Nelson and the publisher is Watson/Guptill, New York. Permission sought from the publisher or owner of this work to display image. |
14. Saddle Rock Saquaro cactus with brush in the foreground, the watercolor painting had the prominent subject as a major rock formation in the rear. The rock formation must have conveyed the idea of a horse's saddle. I can see it in this work. Full sheet watercolor in size. Masters of Western Art, page 157. Permission sought from the publisher or owner of this work to display image. |
11. Desert Wash Wispy cirrus clouds sail past a desert mountain. Saguaro cactus are sprinkled in the foreground of brush and dry grasses. The wash gives evidence of torrential rains eroding the Earth away over eons of time. This painting is found on page 155 of the book, Masters of Western Art, by Mary Carol Nelson, Watson/Guptill Publisher, New York. Permission sought from the publisher or owner of this work to display image. |
