About
Bob Byerley
Back to Byerley Page
Bob Byerley is one of the most recognized painters of children today. His nostalgic Trompe l'Oeil oil paintings evoke feelings of a kinder and gentler age in which Byerley himself grew up. His classical ultra realistic interpretations of the everyday experiences of the child, through the eyes of the child, awaken in the viewer, long forgotten but treasured memories. Byerley's art combines the precise academic painting techniques of the Old Dutch Masters with the heart and soul of Norman Rockwell. In his paintings, imagination abounds. Byerley paints children doing things while simultaneously capturing what is in the minds of the children in the midst of all that activity. Rather than passively viewing the world around them; his kids are alive with vitality and mischief, literally creating the worlds of their imaginations.
