While
watching TV did you ever switch channels and see a man painting a beautiful
landscape or seascape, and make it look so easy you would think to yourself,
“There must be a trick to it”? Well, that wet-on-wet oil painting technique is exactly
what Jack Kolber can teach to YOU! Jack watched
Bill
Alexander and Bob Ross on
PBS and was inspired to teach and demonstrate as a career.
Jack,
formerly of Philadelphia, PA, who now resides in Burlington Township, NJ, became
certified in 1990 and has been teaching children
and adults this easy and fun method of oil painting. Jack also loves to
demonstrate
at schools, retirement facilities, and community centers.
The audiences are amazed at what he can paint in such a short period of
time.
Jack has been featured on several local TV stations such as:
KYW 3 -- “Can You Believe It” with Paul Moriarty
WCAU 10 -- “Seniors Segment” with Gene Crane
FOX 29 -- “Good Day Philadelphia” with Steve Keeley
PBS Station
WLVT --
Painted LIVE on the air during Pledge Break
Many of
Jack’s students have gone on to enter their works in local art shows and
contests and all are rewarded with some level of achievement. In fact, in 1998
and 1999, FIVE of his students won ribbons for their entries in the New Jersey
State Fair for oil painting.
