Lewi Kurtzman

I've been painting since age 5 and sold my first oil for $3.00 at age 8. As an international sales and marketing executive in the laboratory instrument business, I traveled the globe photographing interesting scenes and people. Upon returning to home in the Boston area, I'd select scenes that I'd paint in oils. Many of these paintings hang in homes throughout the world. Now, my studio is in Wilmington, NC where I paint in oils and acrylics. Lately my style has merged impressionism with abstract expressionism to create flowing shapes and lines in vivid colors.
My current business, Lewi Art Paint Parties, attracts people who claim to be unable to draw a straight line. I disprove their claim by handing them a ruler and pencil. To those that say, "I only draw stick figures," I direct them to the work of Joan Miro.
