Fast Draw Art was developed by internationally known artist, Toyah Taylor. This is his story: I was invited to a week-end shooting outside of Houston by a friend and SASS member Bob Puegh. In short, I had a "blast". Everyone was having so much fun and they were very friendly. I grew up in West Texas in a ranch and farming community. I learned to shoot at a very early age because there was an over abundance of rabbits due to the poisoning of the coyotes. Local farmers furnished the shells and paid us kids a penny per rabbit. My Dad took pliers and pulled the site off of my single shot 22 caliber rifle. He said "if you can hit a Jack Rabbit running now, then you will be a shooter". At sunrise we were in the irrigation ditches and war on the rabbits began. l love to shoot but a shooting range by one's self is not much fun. This looked like a great deal of fun and shooting without killing. I took over 70 pictures that day. Later at home I got the idea of creating art from these pictures that would depict the people and the period of the single action gun. As I
searched the internet I did not find any art on the SASS sites of
members shooting, so I contacted my friend and my printer for my Cowboy
Art Publishing Company, . We formed FastDrawArt.Com that offers
a derivative art source for the SASS members.
