Robert Hunter

Northwest painter primarily working in acrylics on canvas as well as collage (mixed media/Japanese & exotic papers). BA and Masters in painting from Western WA
University, Bellingham, WA.
Currently I enjoy a professional studio situated in a
private garden setting in Olympia, WA. My work is
completed in the Abstract Expressionist genre, with
autobiographical themes and nature as a major influence
on my work.
Of note is the fact that having taught art at Aberdeen High School, I had Kurt Cobain as one of my students. He was gifted as a visual artist as well as a singer/songwriter. It was my honor to be an administrator
for an arts scholarship that followed his untimely death in
1994.
Current work by Robert Hunter can be viewed on artspan
as well as at majestic . Recently my digital design "Night Life" was selected by the city of Olympia to
appear as public art downtown.
