Douglas Hofmann
Douglas Hofmann was born in Baltimore, Maryland in 1945 and began his training in art after high school at the Maryland Institute College of Art. He also discovered the Maroger method, which enables the artist to use thin layers of paint and techniques similar to those of the Old Masters. He states, "With my paintings, I strive to get the feeling of air. There is a signature to the work that reveals my hand, my feelings and my personality. You can see the manipulation of the paint and the brush strokes. I don’t want to paint everyday scenes. I’m a dreamer. I want to express a romantic feeling in my work. This appeals to me as a form of self-expression in today’s world of structured reality."
