ARTIST BIOGRAPHY

LARRY CLINGMAN WAS BORN IN SPRINGFIED, MISSOURI IN 1950. HE GRADUATED FROM MISSOURI STATE UNIVERSITY, (THEN SMS), WITH A BACHELOR OF FINE ARTS DEGREE IN COMMERCIAL ART IN 1972.

CLINGMAN HAS DEVOTED HIMSELF ENTIRELY TO HIS PAINTINGS, KNOWING THE JOURNEY IS AN ON-GOING ONE OF LEARNING, REFINING, AND HONING ARTISTIC SKILLS. THE PAINTING STYLE OF CHIAROSCURO STRONGLY MOTIVATES AND INSPIRES LARRY IN MANY OF HIS PAINTINGS. OLD MASTER'S INFLUENCES INCLUDE REMBRANDT, VERMEER, AND CHARDIN. CONTEMPORARY ICONIC INFLUENCES INCLUDE RICHARD SCHMID, DAVID LEFFEL, SHERRI MCGRAW, GREGG KRUETZ, AND JEFF LEGG.

CLINGMAN'S PAINTINGS HAVE EXHIBITED REGULARLY IN REGIONAL GALLERIES AND SHOWS, INCLUDING THE AMERICAN ART IN MINIATURE SHOW AT GILCREASE MUSEUM IN TULSA, OKLAHOMA, AND THE SPIVA ART CENTER IN JOPLIN, MISSOURI. TWO PERSONALLY SELECTED PAINTINGS BY RICHARD SCHMID WERE INCLUDED IN THE TOP 52 WORKS OF THE NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED 14TH ANNUAL RICHARD SCHMID FINE ART AUCTION IN RIST CANYON, COLORADO.

LARRY RESIDES IN BIXBY, OKLAHOMA, A SUBURB OF TULSA, WITH HIS WIFE KATHY, AND PAINTS EVERY DAY IN HIS STUDIO THERE.
