INSTRUCTOR BIO

After a professional career as an architect and sculptor, Dennis Reinke’s focus is now “Painting the Scenes you Love” commissions. Dennis loves to capture the atmosphere and his initial emotional response in a painting, knowing that each painting has a life of its own. Every painting is an abstraction from reality. He enjoys painting in watercolor, oil painting and acrylics.


Dennis received his kickstart from artist, Clyde Aspevig. From there, he studied color theory and use of primary colors. Dennis was intrigued and informed by the luminosity of the work of Maxfield Parrish. He has participated in plein air painting competitions and art shows in many states for both sculpture and painting, and he has taught painting in Colorado, Oregon and Texas. He attended workshops and classes of sculptors Gerald Balciar, Hollis Williford and Fritz White, and painters Buffalo Kaplinski, Kim English and Irving Shapiro, along with an anatomy workshop with JonZahouk.


Dennis has lived and painted nature’s beauty for many years in the Mountains of Colorado and Wallowa Mountains of Oregon. Dennis lives and paints in his studio/home in Comfort, Texas.
