| A third-generation Arizonian, Howard Post was born in 1948 in Tucson, Arizona, where he still lives. He grew up on a small ranch near Tucson in southern Arizona and attended the University of Arizona where he completed his BFA and MFA degrees. In the early 1970s Post worked as a graphic designer and illustrator for a variety of clients throughout the U.S. After serving on the faculty at both the University of Arizona and Arizona State University, he began painting full-time. Among Post’s many awards are the Artist of Distinction Award at the Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art’s 2017 Quest for the West; the Victor Higgins Award of Distinction at the 2012 and 2010 Quest for the West; the Gold Medal for Painting at the Phoenix Art Museum’s 2012 West Select; the Best of Show Award at the 2010 Coors Western Art Exhibit & Sale; the Express Ranches Great American Cowboy Award at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum’s 2010 Prix de West; and the Palette Award at the 2009 Quest for the West. In 2018 his one-man show, The West Observed: The Art of Howard Post, was held at the Tucson Museum of Art. After it closed there, the show traveled to the Booth Museum and the Desert Caballeros Museum.
