Randy McGovern


Randy McGovern is considered by many to be a gifted artist, but he is also considered one of the best realists in the country. He is a perfectionist to the degree that his paintings seem to run, crawl, bound, soar and swim off the canvas. He says of himself, "I feel compelled to count feathers or scales and feel the fur of wolves before I paint them. The perfectionist in me sleeps a little better - even if the extra detail goes unnoticed."

Born and raised in the Crescent City (New Orleans) Randy developed an appreciation for art and nature at a young age. Between winning city-wide art contests in grade school and traipsing through the swamps to capture snakes to sell to snake farms, he grew in thankfulness for his talent and his respect for the natural world.

Needless to say Randy has won many awards, honors, and accolades. Among them he was the Louisiana Duck Unlimited Artist of the Year, 1984; he's been featured on the nationally televised 700 Club; and he was the 1997 National Quail Unlimited Artist of the Year, just to name a few.
