About Tom Morgan
Artist Tom Morgan sculpted "Ponderin' Lines 'n Lyrics" as a tribute to Cowboy Poets. He describes it as a "tribute to those whose words preserve the past." The inspiration for the piece came about when he purchased a copy of The Big Roundup. "The more I checked into the world of Cowboy Poetry, the more intrigued I became with how it brought together such a diverse and passionate group of people. I hope they enjoy the sculpture or at best know that someone out here appreciates their work enough to pay them a tribute," he says.
Like those who inspired the sculpture, Tom has a deep rooted love for Western Heritage. "The work ethic and basic values of the cowboy culture have brought forth the courage to give life my best effort" says the eighth generation Texan. He has had a long love for art, yet a fulfilling business career limited his time to pursue his opportunity for creating art.
These days you can find Tom in his studio in San Antonio giving it his best to create work that he hopes will touch an emotion that makes you go back to the piece time and again.
Tom Morgan made a generous donation of "Ponderin' Lines 'n Lyrics" to the Center for Western and Cowboy Poetry, which was offered in a
Silent Auction, with proceeds to benefit the Center.
