Otto Kuhler - Farming and Painting

Farming and Painting

The Kuhlers sold their home with studio on a hill near Blauvelt, New York, and bought a ranch near Pine, Colorado. Cattle raising and painting the West were now on Kuhler's agenda, the fruits of which can be seen in many American museums. The farmhouse burned down and was rebuilt by them. At age 75 he sold the farm and moved with Simonne to Santa Fé, New Mexico, in 1969 to continue painting. Eight years later they moved back to Denver, Colorado, where Kuhler died at age 83. Currently some of his work can be seen at the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden, CO.
