Randy Wood the artist who created the kneeling cowboy and horse at cross | Western Galleries

Randy Wood, a Senior Manufacturing Tooling Engineer in north Texas, not only works with aerospace engineering technologies, but he also has enjoyed a lifetime of painting and drawing.   Randy first started out as a wildlife biologist, and eventually became an engineer, while creating art in his spare-time.
   One of his early drawings, the Kneeling Cowboy, created for the Cowboy Church in Henreitta Texas, is one of the most recognized cowboy & western symbols in the USA.
   About ten years ago, his wife asked if he could make her a sea turtle sculpture from a large piece of wood.  During that initial project, he discovered that his vast knowledge of animal biology, combined with his innate attention to the finest details as a mechanical engineer, gave him the skills required to transform an ordinary old wood stump into an original fine art sculpture that is displayed as a main centerpiece in their home.   His wood carving journey had begun.          
  Because of the vast time commitment involved with each new sculpture, Randy only creates a very limited number of original sculptures per year.
