Joe Eggert
Joe Eggert’s artwork in bronze portrays the spirit
of the American West and celebrates the cowboy way of life. An avid horseman
and a native of San Diego, California, Joe grew up with a passion for
the West and the cultures of the American Indian. He sketched and painted
in his spare time but it was after retiring from 20 years in the restaurant
industry that Joe discovered his talent in sculpting. More »

A self-taught artist, Joe’s work
reflects his own style and an unwavering attention to detail. He bought
his first few blocks of clay in 1990 and worked long hours after coming
home from his day job. In 1998 Joe realized his dream of sculpting full-time.
He stays busy with 8 to 10 shows a year, creating new pieces and promoting
his artwork. Aside from sculpting, Joe likes to spend time working cattle
with his friends, learning to rope and playing a little golf.
Joe is the recipient of many awards including the 2002
Phippen Family Award at The Phippen Fine Art Show in Prescott, Arizona.
He also won
the 2002 Silver Award for Bronze Sculpture at the National Finals Rodeo.
The 2003 Southwest Art Festival presented Joe with the
blue ribbon for sculpture with his entry “Brushpopper”. In addition, at the
2003 San Dimas Festival of Arts, he won the Festival Choice Award for “More
Than Friends” and also received 1st and 2nd place for sculpture.
