Did you know?

Roger D. Arndt uses the “RDA technique”: Using the finest hand-made sable brushes, he applies dozens of thinned-down, transparent layers of colour on top of each other, letting each layer dry before moving on to the next.  The technique is so time consuming that he often works on a dozen paintings at a time.

He is also one of the few contemporary artists who paints large format representational works, as large as 48″ x 72″.  He typically paints a few large pieces a year, each taking eight months or so to complete.

About the Artist:

Roger D. Arndt

A painting by Roger D. Arndt is a timeless work of art that marries the breathtaking subject matter of Canada’s West with fine craftsmanship and quality. Roger is a smooth brush oil painter who utilizes a centuries-old Flemish technique that was once practiced by European Masters. His attention to detail is paramount, from the time he conceptualizes the image in his mind and prepares his boards, to the finishing and framing of the completed piece. more
