"For eighteen years, I've quietly marketed my
work almost exclusively through two galleries. How fortunate I am to earn my living doing
something that is the most fun, punctuated by moments of "WOW, I did that!" The
biggest challenge in my painting is to satisfy my own expectations." Bye Bitney is a fourth generation native of Kalispell, Montana, and
lives on the west shore of Flathead Lake with his wife Kay and daughter. I learned the art
of painting largely through independent study based on a large collection of fine art
books, which are cherished, if stained and splattered with paint. I've studied the works
of countless favorite 19th and 20th century representational and impressionistic painters.
I've also pursued life drawing, doing countless works in charcoal, as well as oils. I
enjoy a diverse range of subject matter, including portraits and figural work, as well as
landscapes and still life. |
