Eldon Ward

My focus involves vibrant colors in compositions that consider natural, built, and abstract elements in a portion of their physical and social/cultural context. I fabricate the panels from recycled building materials.

I was born and raised on the plains of eastern Colorado, and received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Colorado State University in 1975. Since returning full-time to artwork in 2010 after a 30+ year career as an urban design consultant, my paintings have been included in many juried exhibits and have received a number of awards as outlined below.
