About Paul Herman
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
I can answer many questions about art theory & history though my knowledge in certain areas of history go deeper than others. I can also confidently offer answers about technique & materials in most fine art methods except copper engraving where I am still learning.

Experience
Being a second generation painter forms the greatest part of my education, I grew up in my parent's studios & by 16 was a professional painter/sculptor.

Publications
A few articles about art theory & being an artist on my blog if you are interested in seeing a sample of my writing: http://www.HermanStudios.com/blog.html

Education/Credentials
'A' levels in London (Kingsway & Princeton) & an unfinished degree (3 years) at NYUB (state university at Buffalo, NY)

Past/Present Clients
Some are mentioned on my site, several are European nobility otherwise I guess the most 'quotable in a blurb sense' were Saks fifth avenue both in NYC (where though many including, Andy Warhol & Jasper Johns, have appeared in their windows I was the first commissioned artist in their history) & Beverly Hills.
