Artist Biography

Tom Browning

The career of artist Tom Browning took a new direction in 1984 when he married and moved to a farmhouse surrounded by more than 100 acres of meadows, forests, and orchards. Up until then, Browning had been an artist known mostly for his art, prints and posters of cowboys and wildlife. "Marriage', he believes, "has a tendency of softening things.' When his life changed, so did his art, and he began painting women and children who art timeless in their appearance. Instead of emphasizing specific details, Browning paints features that are suggestive as to form, light, and shade. His art appeals to us on an emotional level, not because it reminds us of a particular people, but because it reminds us of particular memories.

Browning grew up in the small farming community of Ontario, Oregon, where, as a boy, he loved to draw horses, cowboys, and Indians. His earliest memories revolve around waiting to be creative in some way, and all of his time was spent drawing art, prints and posters.

In high school he began to experiment with different media, including oils, now his preferred medium, using a palette knife. Browning went on to study art at the University of Oregon before going off on his own, supporting himself with a variety of jobs while experimenting with pen and ink scratchboard drawings. The demand for his wildlife art, prints and posters grew, enabling him to pursue his art career full time.
