Introduction
My name is Randy Raddatz. I’m 74. I live in Portland, Oregon. My studio is a converted garage.
I have taken art classes at the junior college level and numerous online classes. One of my favorite online teachers/classes was with French abstract artist John Beckly (www.johnbeckley.com). Beyond that I’m self-taught.
At this time I am working on creating a body of work.
Starting from scratch, I make my own canvases and hardboard substrates to paint on. I buy the stretcher board frames, canvas, assemble them and build up the coatings. I start with GAC 400 to seal the canvas, and then add 3 to 5 coats of gesso usually followed by one or two coats of titanium white.
I set up this web site to share with anyone who cares to view, and perhaps purchase (coming soon), my art.
Thank you for visiting my site. Please share it with your friends.
