August 2010 Artist of the Month
Jim Hull
The Henry County Arts Council is pleased to announce James
(Jim) Hull as the August Artist of the Month. Originally a Napoleon native, Hull was raised in Florida, Ohio, where he attended elementary school.
He then attended Napoleon High School from which he graduated in 1974 and went onto college at The Ohio State University.
Hull is married to Lynn Rolander of McClure and together they have two children and soon to be two grandchildren. Hull has always had a passion for art and has been taking classes to maintain his artistic talent. His major influences consist of his father, Ross Hull, Vincent VanGogh, John Muir, Jerry Garcia, Salvador Dali, and Gerry O. Wyche. Jim sends out a special thanks to his teachers, Gary Westhoven of Northwest State Community College and Doug Fiely of Defiance College for their time, criticisms, and encouragement. Hull enjoys working with acrylics on canvas and has many pieces available for purchase. Stop by the Henry County Arts Council and check out Jim's creations in the store front window.
