About the Item

A native Montanan cattle rancher, Theodore Waddell most often paints freely rendered range animals roaming the vast plains of eastern Montana. In his work, he draws a deliberate parallel between his subject and the elements of abstract art; cattle and horses are motifs formally arranged on the flattened and enveloping painted “ground” characteristic of modernism. Noted earlier for heavily textured surfaces, Waddell’s recent paintings are more atmospheric, with translucent wax medium layers suggesting the drift of grazing animals, the transitions of days, and the procession of the seasons. Waddell was born in Billings, Montana, in 1941 and raised in Laurel, Montana. He studied at the Brooklyn Museum Art School, Eastern Montana College, and Wayne State University, Detroit (MFA, 1968). He taught at the University of Montana from 1968 to 1976, and has since worked as a full-time artist and rancher. Waddell has had over 90 solo exhibitions, including major surveys at the Eiteljorg Museum and the Denver Art Museum.
