Robert Bevard, a native of Maryland, is a self-taught representational artist, and enjoys the lessons he learns with each piece he starts. Bob believes that each new piece is part of an evolution he is undergoing as an artist. While working in oils, watercolors, graphite, and pen & ink, he renders his images with great precision and detail. He started drawing and painting in the late 1980's and currently devotes himself exclusively to producing fine art. With the encouragement of his wife, Charlotte, and with much thought, he decided to take the leap and become a full time artist in 2002. Since then, he has maintained a studio in Bowie, Maryland. |
| Wildlife has become his favorite subject matter, and he travels widely in search of subjects to study and paint. Bob was born in 1952, the third of six boys, and grew up in the rural Maryland community of Ardmore. Nature, woods, and exploring were favorite hobbies as a child. Bob loves nature and finds himself especially drawn to aviary. When doing field research, he takes numerous photos and produces many sketches to fully capture the personality and unique traits of each subject. Using these sketches, he captures the intensity of his subjects to tell a story which he hopes reaches the imagination of the viewer. |
