Jim Rehak

Picture
I capture the seasonal changes of the landscape through my plein air paintings.
My enthusiasm for plein air takes me outside to paint fields, marshes, farms,
rivers and bays wherever I travel. My interest in art started with comic book illustration at an early age . It was while studying for my BFA at Maryland
Institute College of Art that an interest in oil painting emerged.
Art has always been a vocation for me - as a portrait and caricature artist in Ocean City, MD during college, art director at a sign company, teacher and freelance court illustrator.
