Hey guys! My name is Katy Hampton and I would love to share my favorite artist with you! You may have seen some of his work all around the city, he is very famous in Cincinnati because from his career in college to the day he passed, he lived right here in the city! His name is Charley Harper. He studied at the Art Academy of Cincinnati. He is one of my favorites due to the fact that his art is very symmetrical and straight forward, which may be boring to some. One of his most known art works is his red cardinal.
My dad along with his fiancé Anna love harpers work! so much that my dad gave me a project one day to paint one of Harpers works on our garage doors! Here is what we based our project on...
