Recognized worldwide for his impeccable interpretation of the Grand Canyon, Art of the West magazine was first to herald him as the "Greatest Living Grand Canyon Artist" in 1997. Since then, Art of the West has gone on to include Walters as one of Eight True Masters, saying: "...many museums and collectors don't feel their collections are complete unless they include a Walters' painting."
Curt Walters: A Retrospective is a small collection of works pulled for the One Man Show being hosted by The Museum of Northern Arizona in June 2016.
