Charlie Boren
For over Thirty years,
Charlie Boren has worked to achieve excellence in the artistic use of
wood. Through study and experience, Boren has developed a singular
style; his sculpture is a harmony of wood and artistry.
Born and reared in Snyder, Texas, Charlie Boren is a native son whose
sculpture clearly reflects his pioneer heritage. A proud member of
Texas First Families, Boren traces his ancestry to Nancy Boren who was
given a Spanish land grant in the Robertson Colony and to her son
Elijah Boren, a member of the early Texas Rangers.
Charlie
Boren holds a BS and MS from Baylor University and worked as an
educator for twenty-five years in Austin, Texas. During this time
Charlie developed and refined his techniques as he studied with the
masters of Bavaria, England, Canada, and the United States.
Boren's sculpture is exhibited in museums and galleries throughout the
state and in private collections throughout the world.
Boren lives and works on his historic family farm south of Burleson,
Texas. Founding and developing this farm into the Russell Farm Art
Center is Charlie's latest endeavor.
Charlie's work is on
display at the Russell Farm Art Center.
