From a studio in Bonita, California, Mehl Lawson creates western sculpture that reflects his ongoing fascination with horses and the relationship between them and their cowboy riders. In 1982, five years after he had completed his first sculpture, his skills earned him membership in the Cowboy Artists of America*, which he served  as President in 1998.  In CAA annual exhibitions, he received a Silver Sculpture Award in 1994, 1997, 1998, 2003 and a Gold Sculpture Award in 1992 and 1996.  In 1992, he received the Kieckhefer Award* for Best of Show.

Lawson won the Frederic Remington Award* at the 1996 Prix de West Show*, hosted by The National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City.
