Douglas E. Winters III Contemporary Fine Art Visions Bio: Douglas paints from his home studio located in Dallas, Texas. The main inspiration for his work comes from his passionate connection with nature. Born in Austin, Texas, Douglas was introduced at an early age to his two great loves, art and nature, by supportive family members. Douglas' grandmother, an artist and professional art teacher, and Douglas' uncle a renowned artist and teacher, currently living and teaching in China have been very influential in Douglas' artistic development. Douglas’ father introduced him to the natural world as a child and throughout his life they have enjoyed time together in the great outdoors. Douglas later embraced his creative talent by studying commercial art, studio art, and architecture at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. Through the use of vibrant colors that explode off the canvas and subjects that beg to be different, Douglas' art invites you to breathe deeply and step inside the wonderful world of nature. Artists Statement: As a creature of the earth, I am constantly amazed and inspired by the awesome beauty and power of nature. There is a peaceful mysticism in her beauty, which feeds my creative spirit. As an artist I try to capture all the emotion and passion I receive from my subjects and produce explosive displays of color onto the canvas. Whether I choose the subject, or the subject chooses me, I always feel a deep spiritual connection to every work of art I create. I hope to share my thoughts, my visions, my spirit, and my soul with the world through art, and invite you into the mystical, wonderment that is nature. “The Spirit and Power of the Earth lives in Peaceful Harmony with the Respectful Heart”
