Bernard Wynne was born in Indianapolis, Indiana in 1920. His superior artistic talent was evident by the age of fourteen, and by the age of thirty Wynne was listed in “Who's Who in American Art.”

He studied with such recognized names such as: James Chapin and Ejnar Hansen of the Pasadena Art Institute; S. MacDonald Wright and Norman Rockwell at Los Angeles County Art Institute. In fact, among contemporary landscape artists he has one of the strongest academic backgrounds in fine art.

Wynne's demanding technique permitted him to create only a small number of paintings each year, making them even that much more valuable. His canvases display the painstaking detail reveling countless dots of numerous colors applied with the palette knife. While he put utmost care and importance in every detail, he allowed the color to dance with the interaction of light… creating movement and depth.

Mr. Wynne travelled throughout the country numerous times each year in search of inspiration. Through his paintings he celebrateed the beauty of our National Parks, like Yosemite's mountains and streams; the High Desert's rocky terrain; tree lined lanes of southern plantations; the rugged Big Sur on California's coast. Yet, he didn't forget his European heritage painting stately castles of Ireland, chateaus of France, or the romantic gardens of Giverny.
