John Elwood Bundy was born in Guilford County, North Carolina and was raised on a farm in Morgan County, Indiana. After a decade in New York City as a portraitist and photographer, he moved to Richmond, Indiana and shifted his focus to landscape paintings.

Bundy was an integral part of the Richmond Group, also known as the Richmond School, a group of American Impressionist painters working in the Richmond, Indiana area from the late 19th through the mid-20th century. He traveled widely across the United States, from California to Michigan and beyond. Bundy also exhibited widely including the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition, the Pennsylvania Academy, the National Academy of Design in New York, the Chicago Art Institute, the Hoosier Salon and the Society of Western Artists.
