Ted Rinkel, "Camper," nd
mixed media, 12.5" x 12" x 9"
Opening Reception: Saturday January 21st 1-4 pm (meet TED)
Ted was born in Holland and emigrated postwar as a teenage boy to Canada in 1955. He has proudly called Calgary, Alberta home ever since.
Ted has always had an admiration for the arts and artists such as folk artist William Kurelek. He has been inspired by Quebec folk wood carvers to evolve his humorous drawings into the third dimension as wood folk art sculptures. Ted could always be found sketching comic figures of his family and friends and of Alberta`s cowboy and farming culture.
Since his retirement as a truck driver, his creative flare continues to grow and entertain those around him.*
