MR Dan Wetta

Opis

Eighty-seven-year-old lifetime artist Dan Wetta, a career accountant (who lived a distinctly different life through his art work, put his dreams and unique vision of the world to canvas and paper throughout his life. With watercolor, oil, acrylics, pen and ink, and even crayons, the artist recorded the life he saw, a life framed by a childhood in New Orleans and an education in a Louisiana seminary. He entered St. Joseph's seminary just before the start of World War II where he received his high school and junior college education. He joined the Army after graduation and continued college education at night in Richmond, Virginia, where he married Martha and raised his two sons. Over the years, the artist took art classes and private instruction and exhibited his work in many public showings, including The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. His art explores a vast variety of themes laced with humor, satire, spirituality and immense respect for life. This third volume of his art in paperback concludes the final set of his extensive collection of works. In here you find his stunning simulations of stained glass paintings on canvas, one of his most unique creations. This book contains more cartoons; a series of sketches done in art galleries, airports, and restaurants; some "mind-reading" portraits; and a sentimental look at time gone by. The artist is making available the entire collection of his works in one complete set or in three sets as contained in his three print volumes: An Artist's Life, An Artist's Vision, and An Artist's World. Enjoy also the artist's seven-volume-ebook series of this collection, El Artista: A Lifetime of Curiosity. Website: http: //danielwetta.com/master-artistauthor-dan-wetta
