He started woodcarving as a young man and gained national recognition in the 1960's when prominent figures, such as Lyndon Johnson and John Connally, started collecting his woodcarvings. Zesch concentrates on the hardships facing contemporary cowboys with a humorous approach. His figures, firmly grounded in modern reality, are drawn from his own experiences in ranching. He focuses on facial expressions, using bold knife cuts to capture the roughness of his subject matter. Throughout his career, Gene has chosen to interpret the American west by chronicling the hopes and frustrations of his own generation of cowboys. Many of Gene's woodcarvings have been cast into bronze using the lost wax process. His woodcarvings and bronzes have been featured at such prestigious venues as the Witte Museum, The Institute of Texas Cultures at the University of Texas, the Smithsonian Institution and The National Cowboy Hall of Fame.
