An Old Timer by Al Richardson – Tribute to the Oilfield Legacy

Al Richardson’s An Old Timer pays homage to the enduring legacy of America’s oilfields with a nostalgic and reverent eye. This fine art print, hand colored by the artist, showcases a weathered pumpjack—affectionately dubbed “the old timer”—standing resilient amid the rugged Texas landscape. With rich, earthy tones and masterful brushwork, Richardson captures the quiet dignity of aging machinery that has tirelessly served generations of roughnecks and drillers. Bathed in the golden hues of a setting sun, this piece evokes both the passage of time and the strength of tradition. Perfect for collectors drawn to Western industry, history, or Americana, An Old Timer is a heartfelt salute to the backbone of the oil patch.
