BIOGRAPHY:
Douglas E. Winters III was born in 1967 in Austin, Texas. Douglas was introduced at an early age to his two great loves, art and nature, by supportive family members. Douglas’s grandmother, an artist and professional art teacher, and his uncle, a renowned artist and art instructor have been very influential in his artistic development. Douglas’s father introduced him to the natural world as a child and throughout his life they have enjoyed time together exploring the great outdoors.
Douglas studied commercial art, studio art, and architecture at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. As a lifelong artist, Douglas has created his artistic identity by presenting his subjects in a manner that have never been seen before. Douglas utilizes a wide variety of artistic mediums in his work, which include: Oil, Acrylic, Air-Brush, Watercolor, Woodworking, and Pyrography (Wood-Burning). Douglas’s unique art style has afforded him the opportunity to exhibit his work in countless residential, commercial, and governmental spaces.
ARTIST STATEMENT:
As a creature of the earth, I am constantly amazed and inspired by the awesome beauty and power of nature. There is a peaceful mysticism in her beauty, which feeds my creative spirit.
As an artist I endeavor to capture all of the emotion and passion I receive from my subjects to create “Wonderment”. Whether I choose the subject, or the subject chooses me, I always feel a deep spiritual connection to every work of art I create.
I hope to share my thoughts, my visions, and my spirit, with the world through art.
“Long Live ART, Long Live Creativity, Long Live Wonderment”
