PAUL YOUNGMAN
Born and raised in Wisconsin, Paul Youngman has rapidly become one of the Napa Valley's finest and most popular painters of the California Wine Country. Relocating to the Napa Valley in 1994, Youngman found it to be the ideal place to paint. As a painter focusing on the wealth of subject matter in California and the West, Paul Youngman's paintings are real without being photographic, rich in color and depth without being overdone, and his subjects have wide appeal. Youngman majored in Fine Art and Graphic Art at the University of California in Los Angeles, and became an architectural and free-lance illustrator. After twenty years in the commercial art field, he chose to expand upon his natural ability as a painter. Through numerous one-man shows and invitational exhibits, Youngman's paintings have won wide recognition among serious corporate and private collectors, which include such notables as Leon Panetta, Mohammed Ali, Dole Pineapple Corporation, Composer Elmer Bernstein and Actor Elinor Donahue. Bringing a new dimension to landscape painting, the paintings of Paul Youngman create an exciting experience for the viewer. His paintings have the essence of the early California Plein-Aire artist's view of color and changing light, but with a contemporary sophistication. Paul Youngman is a member of California Art Club and Signature Member of the Oil Painters of America. He has been featured in Art of the West, Southwest Art Magazines, International Artist, as well as Art Talk, and "Art of the American West"
