Professor Emeritus of art at University of California Santa Cruz, Douglas McClellan was an active figure in Bay Area abstraction. Over the course of a long career, McClellan was the recipient of numerous prizes, medals and juried awards. He exhibited widely and with success including at the San Francisco Museum of Art, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (Purchase Prize), the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. and New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art. His work may be found in private and public collections including the permanent collections of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Pasadena Art Museum, among others.
McClellan attended Pasadena City College and the Los Angeles Art Center before serving in the Pacific Theater of World War II as a camouflage artist. After the War, he enrolled at the Colorado Springs Art Institute where he met and, in 1957, married his wife, the artist Marjorie Ness, with whom he was to spend the remainder of his long life. McClellan obtained his Master of Fine Arts at Claremont Graduate School. In addition to his career as a fine artist, McClellan was an influential teacher who, prior to joining UCSC, chaired the art department at Scripps College and the Claremont Graduate School Master's Program in Fine Arts. McClellan was a member of the California Watercolor Society and the Los Angeles Art Association.
