Ken Payne, born to the ranching heritage of the
Southwest, brings the exciting memories of the Old West
to life in his heroic bronze sculpture depicting the
action, the danger, even the humor of many a frontier
situation.
Ken is a fan of the great sculptors of the past,
especially the Greek and Roman masters. He strives for
the same design qualities within his western themes.
The bronze sculpture of Ken Payne is shown and collected
internationally, and is prized by noted art connoisseurs
as well as first-time collectors. His work is followed
by thousands more through the nationally televised
program, “Sculping with Ken Payne”.
Ken’s studio is located in Ruidoso, New Mexico. He is
usually found working in public where he enjoys meeting
visitors and telling stories of the Old West. Ken is
dedicated to authentically and permanently recording for
us and generations to come, a dynamic era we can hold in
our hands – and our hearts.
Ken will usually begin sculpting with a story he wants
to tell or a title that captures his imagination. His
stories have been included with each bronze and help
bring ‘The Old West’ of life.
