Paul Friske
Artist

"The Lookout" Paul Friske 14"x 18" Oil on stretched canvas

Artist Statement: "The heavens declare the glory of God: The skies proclaim the work of his hand." Psalms 19:1 You can stand on a mountain and look out, or watch a field of flowers in the afternoon sun, and you know it is true. I would like my work to express this in some small way. Paul was born January 13, 1951 in Austin, Texas. He married his wife Tommie in 1977 and they have three children. He studied with Doug Dawson, Ramon Kelley and John O. Encinias. I have probably learned more from studying other artists' work. You get your basics from an instructor, but you learn more painting outside on location or painting from a live model. He is currently a Signature Member of the Pastel Society of America, Member of the Outdoor Painters Society and an Associate Member of Oil Painters of America. He is now a full time artist living in Abilene Texas. He also enjoys teaching art classes and conducting workshops in both oil and pastel.
