A fabulous time was had by all!!  Thank you to the teachers and students that turned out to support Paul and Krista in this show.  They loved showing off their work.

Paul Chamberlain

Raised in the Los Angeles suburb of Eagle Rock, Paul Chamberlain began his initial foray into the art world in high school and continued through his graduation from the renowned Art Center College of Design. He spent several years at design firms in Detroit working on various projects. His most notable design, the logo for the Bay Area Rapid Transit train, graces the front of each BART train to this day. Returning to California in the mid-60’s, Chamberlain settled into the advertising/graphic design field. Creative projects included annual reports, outdoor signage, print ads, brochures and even pop-up greeting cards.

Finally, encouraged by a close friend and working artist, he returned to his easel and, through sketching and traditional oil painting, rekindled his fine art creative flame. Chamberlain’s love of color and composition have led him to explore both the Plein Air and in-studio experience. His studies, with such notable artists as Calvin Liang, Frank Serrano and Karl Dempwolf, plus the continual visual influence of master artists Sam Hyde Harris, Sergei Bongart, and Maynard Dixon help him sharpen his eye for the strong color palette, interesting subjects and unique compositions. Paul Chamberlain is a member of the California Art Club & The Glendale Art Association. www.prcfineart.com
