Tim Cox
Tim 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. Toh-Atin is proud
to offer you the outstanding work of award winning artist 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.
