Fluid Acrylics Demonstration with
Robert Noreika

Robert Noreika

Robert ‘Bob’ Noreika has been a professional artist for forty years. Bob’s passion for art is matched by a natural talent for painting a wide variety of subjects, highlighted by expressive coastal renderings, intimate woodland scenes, and street scenes. Over the past decade, Bob has worked enthusiastically creating large-format works on both canvas and paper. An ongoing series called “Turtle-esque,” these studio pieces incorporate his years of observation, rendering, and careful studies of aquatic life, expressing gestural fluidity in a semi-abstract setting. In 2009, the New Britain Museum of American Art acquired one of these pieces for its permanent collection.

A graduate of Paier School of Art, he is a prominent, nationally award-winning artist and illustrator. His paintings hang in both corporate and private collections throughout the United States, Europe, and Japan. Bob’s work is also featured in 100 Artists of New England by Schiffer Publishing. He is represented in numerous galleries and teaches and lectures throughout New England. He has illustrated several children’s books and magazine editorials.

Bob is a signature member at the American Watercolor Society as well as the New England Watercolor Society. He is also an elected member of the National Society of Painters, the Salmagundi Club, the Lyme Art Association, the Connecticut Watercolor Society, the Connecticut Plein Air Painters Society, and the Connecticut Academy of Fine Arts.
