Rod Edwards

View Rod's Gallery

Rod Edwards, born in San Francisco, began pursuing his artistic interest at a young age encouraged by his mother, Eloise Edwards, an outstanding portrait painter. At the Scottsdale Artist School he studied with noted artists David A. Leffel and Ray Vanella learning the techniques that would form his work.

After living in the San Fernando Valley, he moved north to a small town called Newhall. Once there he found himself drawn to the landscape. “The more I painted the landscape, the more I love it”. He says “I first look for the abstract shapes and patterns and then the light and dark areas. The Santa Clarita Valley with its oak trees, canyons and hills make for ideal settings.”

Rod can usually be found rushing to capture the first or last light of the day, which he calls the “golden time”.
