Gene Tempelmeyer
(Sketching life on the beach in the Dominican Republic. It’s a tough job, but someone has to do it.)
Gene was born in Virginia and spent his formative years in the southern US before immigrating to Canada. He now resides in the Greater Toronto area. His love for the warm landscapes of his youth and the dynamic city where he now lives is evident in his paintings.
Gene is a self taught painter from a family rich in artists. His style is eclectic, using oil and acrylics as his primary mediums. His work contains a richness of texture and colour that reflects the vibrancy that lies behind all we see.
Aside from his art, Gene’s major interests are his family and his faith.
