Where Paint Goes Larry Lewis

An autobiography, the historical account of my life as an artist; written

in a way that reflects the idea, "art mirrors life and life mirrors art."

I use a subtitle for the book: "The art that affected my life and the life

that affected my art." I am a fifty-year veteran of working in the creative

industry, accomplishing and/or holding the titles of - fine artist, painter,

sculptor, illustrator, designer, graphic designer, conceptual promotional

designer, art director, creative director, under graduate advertising arts

instructor, private post-secondary college administrator, mentor and

more. This book is written in conversational style.

Born, 1953, in Martinez, California. I was recognized as being a creative

at an early age and addressed my life accordingly to this date. I began to

work at illustration and painting at the age of sixteen and was represented

by my first gallery prior to graduating high school. At the age of nineteen

I was painting as well as offering art instruction via civic instructional

classes. In my fifty years of working in the art industry, my work has been

exhibited all around the United States, Canada, Mexico, China, Germany,

and the UK. To date my work is represented in Los Angeles, China, and

Las Vegas. I write this book not to tell the story of my life, but to offer the

reader insight into the life of an artist.
