subject: Developing Art into a Thriving Business [print this page] There is a man who paints portraits of everything from alligators to parakeets to a prized black angus and this is growing into a highly specialized art business and a thriving one at that. As he distinctly describes, ""If anyone wants a painting of their pet flea, I'll make one provided that there's a clear snapshot of it"". Several birds, cats, rabbits, horses, dogs, and one alligator are the specially selected animals for his masterpieces thus far.
When he was still little, his fascination centered in creatures and creating. Even when one can resort to selling fine paintings artists know that this is still not a good living when it comes to supporting a wife and kid. Continuing his studies he moved to the Bay Area where he tried to pursue a career in commercial art. It was during World War II when he opened his display business and engaged in fine art as a hobby.
After he painted a pair of siamese cats owned by his friend his wife suggested that he develop his hobby into a business because even the cats were delighted enough that they purred and rubbed against the painting almost ruining it as a result. When it comes to his income from the pet portrait painting business the results are rather impressive.Most recently he showed, some of his work at the cow palace.
Considering this he received a number of requests for him to make portraits of fine show horses, a pet parakeet whose owner raised it from an egg, and also a champion rabbit. To make a portrait of his horse was the request he received from a well known television actor singer who was a recording artist. He was appointed as well to create the painting of the prize winning black angus. Other than the subjects seldom kicking it is something that is better than painting people portraits.
In a big university in Santa Clara there is a new director of the gallery and museum and in San Jose she was the former director of a big museum and she took on the job after a reverend died early last month. What she was is a renowned artist and she exhibited at the palace of the legion of honor locally as well as through the nation.
There will be an exhibit at a gallery in San Francisco displaying the works of a local sculptor. The gallery will exhibit thirty of his works ranging from neo classical to highly abstracted forms. Apart from conducting a ballet school, he is also a writer, photographer, and a highly talented artist. He was one of the stars in the film, spectre of a rose.
In another famous museum is where an exhibit of a private collection consisting of more than 200 objects, books, prints, paintings, and sculptures will remain.What covers 50 years is a collection owned by a couple from Pennsylvania. What it consists of include scores of other historic greats plus the works of a dozen well known painters. When he was still a student of Harvard the husband began to collect books but he was able to expand his collection to include many of the more valuable objects which he buys on installment.
