He is the son of Mike and Anne Capron and a brother to Liz Capron, all

1992 and from Texas A&M University-Commerce in 1996 with a degree in
Ag-Business.
The same year, he began to apprentice under bit and
spur maker Greg Darnall. Wilson's unique designs also stem from

strengthens me."

influence of his father, cowboy artist,
Mike

Today, Wilson lives in Midland, Texas, with his wife
Katy, where his interest in horsemanship and roping continue to contribute
to his art as a bit and spur maker.
