Hayden Lambson was born on August 27, 1948 in Ramah, New Mexico where Hayden grew up. In 1970, Hayden graduated from BYU as valedictorian of his college, but had not yet considered a career in art. From there he worked as a career scouter for the Boy Scouts of America for six years. In 1976 he turned his full attention to art. In 1982 Lambson printed his first print—‘A Big Step’. In 1988 he was selected to be Artist of the year for Whitetails Unlimited. He was also the Artist of the Year for the Foundation of North American Wild Sheep in 1990. He was chosen as Artist of the Quarter for the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation in the winter of 1991. In 1992 he was selected as Artist of the Year for Minnesota Deer Hunters Association. Hayden’s work can be seen yearly at many wildlife centered art shows.

Lambson’s art work has been featured in art and outdoor magazines such as Art West, Hunters’ Quest, Wildlife Art News, Idaho Wildife, Cabela’s, New Mexico Wildlife, Alaskan Outdoors, and others. Hayden’s work raises thousands of dollars each year for conservation groups. Obvious from his enthusiasm for wildlife conservation and his artwork itself is Hayden’s love for hunting and the outdoors.
