Tim Cox
Tim Cox was honored with
one of the most prestigious awards in the world of western art June 14th at
the Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City. The National Academy of Western
Art chose Cox's painting, "On
to Better Pastures", for the coveted Prix de West Purchase Award. Cox's
was the judge's favorite of the almost 300 paintings at the 2003 Prix de
West Show, which featured the works of ninety-two highly acclaimed artists.
The $20,000 oil was purchased by the hall to be part of the museum's
permanent collection.
| Cox was born in 1957 in Arizona and
grew up in the small farming and ranching community of Duncan, near
the New Mexico state line. When only 5 years old, Tim vowed he "was
going to be a cowboy artist" when he grew up. He currently lives in
northern New Mexico and is considered one of the great western
artists of our time. U.S. Art's "Gallery owners survey" named Tim
one of the top two most popular Western print artists in 1999. |

| While most of his time is consumed by painting, Tim
continues to raise cattle and train his horses. He also finds the time
to coach young riders who compete in cutting competitions and other
competitive horse events. Tim combines the basic ingredients of color,
value, perspective and pleasing design with his desire to be a
perfectionist in portraying the real working cowboy. This attention to
exactness is appreciated by most ranchers and cowboys as well as the
recreation horse owners around the world. In 1999, Tim was
commissioned to paint Kentucky Derby winner "Silver Charm" and a leading
racing quarter-horse sire, "First Down Dash". He was the featured artist
at the annual Cattleman's Western Art Show in San Luis Obisbo and was
recently invited to show at the prestigious Prix de West Show at the
Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City this coming June. Tim has won the
Olaf Weighorst award twice at the Mountain Oyster Club Art Show in
Tucson, Arizona. He is also featured in U.S. Art and Art of the West
magazines. |
