 Quote: “Art is not delivered like the morning paper; it has to be stolen from Mount Olympus. If you stare at an object, as you do when you paint, there is no point at which you stop learning things from it.” | Wayne Thiebaud ( pronounced Tee-Bow) was born on November 15 in 1920 and is still living. He began his art career as a cartoonist and designer before becoming an artist in the U.S. Navy. In 1960 he became an associate professor and continued to teach students for nearly 20 years. Thiebaud’s most famous works are series of paintings of cakes and pies especially Cakes painted in 1963. |
