Featured in , Schenck spoke about his latest exhibition which incorporates the style he's known for: photorealist techniques with a pop art sensibility.

What separates Schenck as an artist is his focus on the West. Cowboys, Native Americans and rugged landscapes populate his most recent collection using a flattened, reductivist style inspired in-part by his youth.

“I have such a distinct memory of climbing up the stone steps of Acoma. The Natives were all in white robes and blankets. It was monsoon season — the clouds out there — and you could see 30–40 miles," Schenck said, recalling a trip with his parents when he was 5-years-old.

The title painting “Women of the Canyons” features a trio of women working in a Southwestern landscape at dusk. In other pieces, clouds and rock walls give contrast against skies over unseen horizons.

He also reflected on his education. According to the article, The Columbus College of Art “threw me out,” he said, so he switched to the 91����.

“When I started working from photographs in 1968, the dean and the art department all told me I had to stop,” Schenck said. He graduated from the 91���� in 1970.

Schenck’s artwork now hangs in 54 museum collections, including Smithsonian Institution, Denver Art Museum, The Autry Museum of Western Heritage, Booth Western Art Museum, Tucson Museum of Art, Phoenix Art Museum, the Mesa Southwest Museum, Museum of the Southwest in Midland, Texas, the Albuquerque Museum and the New Mexico Museum of Art. Private collections include the estate of Malcolm Forbes, Laurance Rockefeller, the estates of Fritz Scholder, and Sylvester Stallone. Corporate collections include American Airlines, IBM, Sony, and Saatchi & Saatchi.
