Fremont Ellis, a versatile and unconventional figure in New Mexico's art scene for over six decades, had a diverse upbringing as the son of a traveling dentist, carnival performer, and theater operator. Raised in Montana amid mining towns, Ellis lacked formal education but discovered a passion for art during a transformative visit to New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art as a child. He began painting by copying masterpieces there and continued in Montana. After a stint in optometry in El Paso, Texas, he settled in Santa Fe, New Mexico marrying and pursuing photography. His photographic skills later influenced his art, marking a significant chapter in his creative journey.
