Busy

My Montana Mule
                                                     

Near Dad

Much of my time is spent working on frames. Some times my son just wants to be near. I try to limit the amount of cartoons.

Frames by Doug Cox (and Son)

My son is wanting to earn some extra money. Having grown up working on a farm, I feel you're never to young to learn a good work ethic

Copper Frame-Old Main Gallery

I just built the 1x6 frame and a local company put the copper on.



Western Masters Show

Kenneth Yarus, a painter from the Kalispell area used about a dozen of my frames for the Western Masters Show in Great Falls. Frame of Reference out of Bigfork did a great job of matching frames and paintings. Heard the show was a hit.
