Artwork by Brian F Alward

I am 79 years old, retired, and about 10 years into making my senior years productive with fine art.

After a fight with bladder cancer, earning a Bachelor degree in Geography and Anthropology, and a Masters degree in Urban and Environmental Planning and Policy. I worked in those fields for a time.

Upon retiring I started using the knowledge of my past to draw landscapes, cityscapes, seascapes, flowers, and portraits.

I also taught myself about the mediums of watercolor and acrylics and took some oil lessons. Afterwards, I studied with a professional artist.

Art now along with moderate exercise occupies about 80% of my time.

My artistic challenges are to accurately render paintings as beautiful as the Old Masters and to learn the techniques that they possessed.

I think that, from the description presented in the outline of this course, that the Old Masters Academy can help project me to that end.

I want to win to validate my decision and hope that people will understand my earnestness, evaluate my work and vote for me.
