His vast knowledge of the outdoors, together with well-honed artistic skills has produced wildlife art widely recognized for its creativity, realism and natural beauty.

As an dedicated sportsman, Elliott is actively involved in efforts around the country to assist in the preservation and reclamation of natural habitats. This devotion to the land and its creatures is reflected in each of his artworks. Elliott was born and raised in the upper Midwest, where he grew to love nature, and discovered he could share his feelings through his art. For Elliott, painting is much like poetry; some pictures require long highly detailed formal verse, and others are a simple statement with more emphasis on breadth and a single impression. In either case, hen is a compelling storyteller, whether recording a specific scene, or simply using the subject to express and evoke poetic moods orn feelings. He says "After painting for 25 years, I feel I'm just beginning to speak the language." Elliott's formal art training includes study of art history with a research abroad and a full time three-year apprenticeship in a classical atelier. His paintings are shown throughout galleries in America, Europe and Asia. Listings wanted.
