Amy Higgins said...: Hi Bruce, I follow you each time you post a new piece, and I always enjoy your shadows and landscapes. This "New Journey" piece is just wonderful! Thinking of adding it to my collection...I love it that much!; August 27, 2011 at 4:43 PM
Bruce Docker said...: Thanks Amy, that would be great. I really like this high angle view of landscapes and though I have used it some before, I like the focus of these last 2.; August 27, 2011 at 4:59 PM

How I am, the way I am.

I come from a long line of artists. My father drew the original series of cigarette smoking woodpeckers used in all traditional tattoo shops today. My maternal grandmother was a professional artist who could paint the highlights of a vase with the devastation of a paper cut to the eye. And of course my grandfather was the infamous paint-by-numbers artist and rum runner of Kansas City in the 1940’s. I have tried to combine all I learned from them into a cohesively rambling style.

My formal training includes years of study with the Canadian art God, John Nagy, developer of the audacious Learn to Draw Kit. We met every Tuesday afternoon at 3:30.

Believing in total respect for my materials I once used an entire box of Crayola 64’s without breaking a single crayon, I covered my driveway in Scotch tape to protect my sidewalk chalk drawings from the rain, and the cloth of my canvas is made only from the wool of free range sheep.
