angelo fernandez
(all media)
 A
self-taught fine art painter endlessly seeking continual improvement
through classes, workshops, art books, and confraternity with other
artists.
As a child, I drew pencil cartoons of persons I saw in the
Newsreels. My aunt gave me a set of Grumbacher Pastels in 1943. Not
knowing how to use them, I cherished them and put them away until
1952, when I was introduced to pastels, charcoal, watercolor, and
oil paints in art appreciation classes in Junior High School. I
never put these media aside since and found there is no media I do
not love to work with. All have their intrinsic advantages and
limitations. I learn how each best serves my particular art
enterprise and, then, choose the media that best expresses the art
vision.
After retirement from over 31 years in the U.S. Marine Corps and 15
years as an engineering manager with Cummins Filtration, I now
devote the rest of my life to art. My beloved wife has been my most
ardent supporter and valued critic. She is quite proud of my
artistic accomplishments, however modest.
I am a member of the Portrait Society of America and a contributing
writer of their Literary Committee.
