In a 1975 high school English class essay, Tim Cox wrote that one of his fondest wishes was to be a member of the Cowboy Artists of America.
His wish was granted in 2007 when he was invited to join the prestigious group. After serving on the board of directors and being a member for only a few years, he served as president for 2011, 2012, and 2017. He is now an emeritus member of the organization.ย
We hope you enjoy this sampling of his work.

You just made my day with this. It’s like drinking glory, like Heaven and Earth meeting.
Thanks for including his website, because, shockingly, I’ve never seen any of his work.

A talented painter, great pictures. Western art is the best. I believe I saw one of his paintings in Marga Texas at the Hotel Paisano.

The art of Tim Cox I understand. Picasso, I don’t. Cox is one talented cowboy! The colors he used are stunning-and the scenes he created are up there with Norman Rockwell. Thanks for introducing your readers to his paintings. ๐
