Cary Schwarz has enjoyed the journey of artistry and craftsmanship in leather since 1971. Whether exploring a new floral design or perfecting his hand sewing, he has found ways to stay engaged in the process of learning and improving. The work he brings to the TCAA exhibition each year is an offering that shows his love of this process and of the Western lifestyle that he cherishes. Schwarz sees his vocation as one where he is helping others celebrate the West, whether from the back of a horse or on display in the home.
