sporadic courses in college

My evolution as a painter

and naturalism; impressionism
and fauvism; cubism and

At nineteen I went to Europe,
thirsty for scope and depth in
Art which America lacks.
Having established myself in
the south of France, I
absorbed the emanations of the
modern masters who had lived
and painted there. I was
profoundly moved by the
bizarre snow storm over La
Côte d’Azur on the night of
Picasso’s death. No such storm
had ever been seen before in
April, as old-timers in Nice

Artist Reviews:
"Theo Radic comes from
America, but has been living
many years in Sweden. I have
experienced him previously as
a genuine colorist, and I do
so now looking at his work
being shown at the newly
opened Gallery Baggen. He
works with mixed media.
Collage plays a big part.
