About
Evan Anderman
Evan Anderman was born
and raised in Denver,
Colorado and as a child
spent a lot of time
skiing, hiking, and
hunting in the mountains
and plains of Colorado
and the Western United
States. The son of a
geologist, Evan often
found himself with his
dad stopped by the side
of the road at the top
of a ridge, just to look
at the landscape and the
rocks around them. This
upbringing instilled in
Evan a love of the
western landscape, not
just the grand beauty of
the Rocky Mountains, but
also the subtle beauty
of the region.
Evan’s diverse
background as an earth
scientist helps to guide
his photographic vision
of the Western landscape
by capturing the subtle
interactions between
land and water and the
intimate details that
most people don't
notice. With the
landscape views he
portrays the overall
view of an area. The
detailed shots focus-in
on parts of the
landscape, sometimes a
feature as large as a
hillside and at other
times something as small
as a single seed head or
flower. Evan’s
photographic style has
won him critical
acclaim. His intimate
landscape photographs
have been described by
Michael Paglia in
Landscapes of Colorado
as “the most unusual and
distinctive” traits of
his photography. Evan
has also been described
as having a “keen sense
for a balanced
composition” and a
“sensitive eye for
contrasting and
complimentary shades” of
color.
