Teal
Blake was born and raised in Montana at the base of the Rocky Mountains
in Charles M. Russell country. His mother, Tona Blake, a designer,
writer and photographer, and his father, Buckeye Blake, a famous western
artist both helped to instill his artistic nature.
At an early age, Teal was introduced to horses. He was raised in and
around the rodeo circuit and the cutting horse arena. He also accompanied
his family to some of the western art world's most prestigious events. |
