ENTRANCE GALLERY
A professional artist of some forty-odd years, George Van Hook grew
up in the Philadelphia area where he spent a great deal of time
studying the masters at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and immersing
himself in the Bucks County Impressionist and the Brandywine art
traditions from the early 20th century. A noted and award-winning
figurative artist, Van Hook’s oil paintings hark back to the
works of William Merritt Chase and display the Impressionist interest
in color, light and rich pigment. His landscapes, still lifes and
figurative paintings have been exhibited widely in galleries throughout
the United States, as well as in Europe and Japan. George Van Hook
lives in New York State with his wife, Sue. |
