Name:
Cliff Wassmann

Born:
Hackensack, New Jersey

Trained at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, the United State’s oldest art school in Philadelphia, Wassmann has developed a highly realistic style using oil paints on masonite panels. The panels allow for beautiful blends and ease in applying the final details that make Wassmann’s work unique.

His realist style harkens back to the 19th century realists that journeyed from the east coast to the unexplored western part of the country. They returned with stunning paintings of places that had never been seen before. Wassmann hopes to recapture the publics imagination the same way with his new series of Antarctica paintings.
