Painting Portraits in Oils – Demonstration with Richard Stergulz

Richard Stergulz graduated from the American Academy of Art in Chicago in 1985 and began his successful commercial art career.

In 1995, he felt it was time to fine tune his fine art style and moved to California to start painting for himself in a realistic style with a touch of Russian impressionism.

Rich teaches class regularly at his art school and artist retreat called The Green Art House, as well as doing demonstrations for most of the Art Associations in San Diego and Riverside counties. 

He has judged at countless shows, and his work hangs in galleries in Santa Monica, CA and Boca Grande, FL. Richard is also the presenter of Colour In Your Life, West Coast USA. 

Rich is also our West Coast USA Host of Colour In Your Life.
