He drifted between acclaim and obscurity and had associations and friendships with many notable westerners, including Olaf Wieghorst, Barry Goldwater, Peter McDonald and Bill McGee.His paintings are held in private collections, municipal buildings, and corporate collections. Noteworthy are two large 6'x9' canvases collected by Arizona's largest art patron, Bank President Walter Bimson.Damrow was born in 1916 of German decent, and was a cowboy his whole life. His artist skills remained strong throughout his early career, culminating in a horse accident in 1968. This event plus a decline in eyesight in his later years, confined his best works to the earlier period, although he painted industriously until his passing in the early 1980s.Sources include:Peggy and Harold Samuels, The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Artists of the American WestAdditional information courtesy of the artist's daughter by way of Golden Gallery.
