About Me
- The Art of Kevin Wueste
- "There's nothing better than discovering, to your own astonishment, what you're meant to do. It's like falling in love." - Mike Nichols – I am now 5 years into my classically-oriented art education. I have three years at the Academy of Art in San Francisco - having studied there with Ruben Deanda, Henry Yan, Zhaoming Wu and Tomutsu Takeshima and Tae Park among such great teachers. I have studied the GCA in NYC and with Rob Liberace, Michael Grimaldi, Hope Railey as well as master Glen Orbik down at CAI.. I spent a rewarding year with Anthony Ryder in NM - 2009-10. The fall of 2010 took me to the Guild Atelier in beautiful and wacky Brooklyn - studying w/ Camie Davis. I work hard and want to be as great a painter and draftsman as I can be. Drawing and painting people is probably my favorite thing to do.. I grew up in Washington, DC and spent 15 working in Seattle for Microsoft I am now an Instructor at the Academy of Art. The energy is great and I hope my students see how much their success matters to me. They probably have no idea ( unless they hunt this down and read it!).

Wow Kevin!
you are producing really terrific works! Congrats!
how is going the experience at the Guild? Judging for your work, awesome!
Really beautiful stuff Kevin!
I very much like the temperature range on your alla prima
Hi
I am impressed with your work and I find you a bit of an inspiration. I recently quit my job to pursue painting so relate to your quest. I have an enormous amount of work to do and would appreciate your advice on useful workshops. I am a figurative artist living and working in Ottawa Canada - where the level of instuction is not very high so I am desperate for a good teacher.
so glad I found your blog, since I don't go to CA.org anymore.
great and inpiring work, Kevin.
Thank you all for your comments! Janet, if you send a comment with your email I can respond or my email is published here I think.. somewhere..
Workshops - the good, you can spend some time with amazing teachers; - the bad: they are expensive and too short.. that is my opinion most of the time, my workshops with Camie Davis, Rob Liberace, Hope Railey and Tony Ryder (and MIchael Grimaldi) would go against that grain however - learned a ton and would go to them all again !
wow I really like this! thanks for the inspiration!
Did you ever finish these !!!! ;) I come back to look and slink around in such beauty , for the most part I think you had something rather very special in that first pose , I can look at this much Wiser and appreciate how hard you would have worked on that drawing ~That and I love Graphite more then anything ....I think ...A
