Randy Bacon

Randy Bacon has always been attracted to the quality of light, the precise colors and the big skies of his native state.

“When you grow up in West Texas, you have to work a little harder to find the beauty in your surroundings. But it’s there in quiet abundance when you learn to see the extraordinary in the ordinary. It’s a land often caught in a time warp, and I try to capture the timelessness of its isolation.”

In communicating a sense of place, Bacon often draws upon the people and venues of his life to bring about work where past, present and future become blended, where memory and reality connect.

Before returning full time to painting, Bacon was president of Stuart Bacon Advertising and Public Relations in Fort Worth, from 1987 to 2002, a full-service agency he co-founded with Jim Stuart.
