William Schneider is a contemporary figural painter who completed his studies at the American Academy of Art. He has also attended workshops with Carolyn Anderson, Dan Gerhartz, Scott Burdick, David Leffel, Richard Schmid and others. However, he credits the many hours he spent studying and copying masterworks by Nicolai Fechin with loosening up his brushwork and approach to edges.

Schneider was awarded Master Signature status in the Oil Painters of America and is a Master Pastellist with the Pastel Society of America.

Good estate condition.
