Warren Eliphalet Rollins (1861-1962) was an early member of the Santa Fe art colony, along with Carlos Vierra, Gerald Cassidy, Kenneth Chapman, and Sheldon Parsons, arriving in 1915 through his friendship with E. I. Couse. Rollins had the first formal exhibition in Santa Fe, showing Indian paintings before 1910 so that he was properly regarded as the "dean of the Santa Fe art colony."
Before coming to Santa Fe, Rollins was in Arizona painting Hopi Indians. He also worked at the Chaco Canyon ruins in northern New Mexico and had a studio near El Tovar at the Grand Canyon.
Rollins passed away in Winslow, Arizona in 1962.
