Buford Evans Art

American, b. 1931

Born and raised in Golinda, Texas, Buford Evans moved to Houston in 1955 after serving in the Air Force in the early 1950s. While he had a rough start, Evans became a pupil of fellow Houston artist Ralph Dickerman, who helped him move beyond objective realism and express his own personal feelings.
