Howard Carr is a Vietnam Veteran. After serving

billboards, and graphic work in Boulder,
Colorado. His contributions to the art world are
numerous. He has authored and illustrated
many articles for art and other leading
magazines. His national and international
instructional workshops are in continuum.

Howard's impressionistic oils reflect, clarity and
simplicity, ultimately his artistic strengths. He is
always experimenting with color and subject
matter. He loves artistic drama, the excitement
of dynamic lighting, and sees paintings
everywhere he looks.

"Finding fresh inspiration has never been a
problem for me, because I don't dissipate
energy in competitiveness or seeking approval.
It’s an on-going quest to perfect what I love
most, painting and of course the wife and cat.
I believe this is why I have a good collector
base. I work hard at making my technique,
color, and feeling seem simple by focusing on
the important parts of the painting”.
