Curt Walters

Curt Walters, who was heralded by Art of the West as the “Greatest Living Grand Canyon Artist” in 1997, is the subject of his new book spanning his art career and personal history. Previously, Walters was included as one of “Forty Prominent People in the Western Art World” (Southwest Art 2011), and one of “Eight True Masters” (Art of the West 2007).
Since his career began in earnest at age 19, Walters has received fifty-five awards for excellence in oil painting. Curt Walters is a well-known participant in many western invitational museum shows, and seventeen museums hold Walters’ art in their collections. Three major museums have held retrospective exhibitions of his paintings: the Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa; the Eiteljorg Museum in Indianapolis; and the Museum of Northern Arizona in Flagstaff. Walters has been included in several art shows at FORBES Magazine Galleries in New York and California. Several of his paintings are featured in the Erivan and Helga Haub Family Western Art Collection at the Tacoma Art Museum.
