Montana artist Loren Entz has been a member of the Cowboy Artists of America since 1992. During his 15 years in the organization, Loren has won his share of medals and the appreciation of collectors. “I’m very proud of my association with the CAA. My desire is to steadily grow as an artist and become the best painter and sculptor that I can become.”

Loren is a versatile artist as typified by his skill with charcoal, pencil, pastel, oil and watercolor. Two years ago when Loren entered his first sculpture, he displayed the same artistic skill and comfort with clay as he has with the brush. Over the years, his dedication to quality has resulted in numerous awards, including four Silver and three Gold medals from CAA in both oil and drawing.

Loren was the honored guest artist at the 2006 C.M. Russell Auction of Original Western Art in Great Falls, Montana, and he garnered the coveted “Robert Lougheed Memorial Award” at the 2006 Prix de West Invitational Art Exhibition. The award is based on the vote of all of the participating artists and is given to the artist with the best show of three or more works. Loren says, “It’s a huge honor to gain the approval of my peers.”

Loren makes his home in Billings, Montana where he has restored an historic building that now houses his studio.
