Wayne Bernhard
WAYNE DAVID BERNHARD, born and raised in the New Orleans area, always had a love for color and unusual types of paintings. His mother, Doris Bernhard, was always involved in art and taught him how to enjoy the transformation of a blank canvas into a finished product. As his love of painting grew, he began to realize his love for vibrant colors and unusual designs dominated his paintings. He began to study the works of Peter Max, Jackson Pollock, as well as other abstract artists. These artists influenced his continued love of color and a love for creating his own style of abstract art.
He is largely self-taught but has attended many demonstrations and seminars in perfecting the nuisances of abstract painting. He is best-known for his works in acrylic and mixed media. All of his paintings are original and, in many cases, he cannot duplicate them because of the complicated details in the work. They are truly one of a kind.
He exhibits locally at various venues throughout the Greater New Orleans area. He is a member of several local art guilds and has won several awards for his paintings. He hopes to share his enthusiasm for the art of abstract painting with all, and encourage others to pursue their dreams as he has done.
He has attached a few examples of my paintings and hopes you enjoy them.
