Charles Wysocki Biogrpahy:
Charles Wysocki (1928-2002) was born to Polish immigrants in Detroit Michigan. After attending a technical high school, Wysocki entered the army and eventually studied art in college on the GI Bill where he studied illustration. After graduation, Wysocki began working as an artist for an advertising agency, and eventually started his own successful firm.
It was on a vacation to New England that Charles became enamored with the pastoral settings and historical significance of the many small towns. He began doing some of his own artwork in a more primitive/ folk art style. After selling out a show with all of his work, Wysocki decided to paint fine art full time.
Wysocki became very well known and published over 60 limited edition prints and several books. people Magazine also wrote a story about him.
