Robert began painting in the late 70s as he found this and woodworking as a way of relaxing. He worked in the human services field until he retired in 2008, when he began painting full time. Bob is a self taught acrylic painter with his focus on original folk art scenes from the past. He likes using bright colors to catch the eye while then allowing the view to enter the realistically rendered picture to a simpler idyllic time.

Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting.
