About the artist:
Howard Rogers wanted to be an artist for as long as he could remember. "I had no idea what an artist was when I was a kid," he laughs. "But I had a distant cousin who had gone to art school and I saw some of his drawings. They really impressed me." Born and raised in San Diego, California, Rogers now focuses on the future: "I kind of enjoy today and tomorrow and to heck with yesterday."
While in high school, Rogers took some art classes and served as an apprentice sign painter, eventually becoming a journeyman. He was also a member of his high school track team, competing in the high jump, the hurdles and cross-country, as well as doing some bike racing. Following a stint in the Army, he began training for the Olympics in bike racing, trying out in 1948, 1952 and 1956. Today, "I ride a stationary bike in front of my easel three times a week."
After trying out for the 1956 Olympics, Rogers married his wife Bonnie and attended the Art Center in Los Angeles, graduating with distinction in advertising illustration. The couple then headed to Detroit, Michigan, where Rogers worked for several art studios, as well as illustrating for several national magazines as a freelance illustrator. In 1971, the couple moved to Connecticut, where Rogers focused on his illustration work, doing pieces for magazines such as "Good Housekeeping," "Ladies Home Journal," "Readers Digest" and "Cosmopolitan," as well as book covers for Simon & Schuster.
In 1979, the Rogers spent time at a guest ranch in Wyoming and the next year, Rogers did his first oil painting. The two events came together to move the artist in a direction that would bring him undisputed success in the fine art world. In 1985, the Rogers moved to Bozeman, Montana, and soon after, Rogers tried his hand at sculpting.
Art, no matter the medium, is Rogers' passion. Besides painting, sculpting and landscaping, he is also talented at woodcarving.

De Ruth, a native of Czechoslovakia and an American citizen, spent the years of World War II being shunted through five different concentration camps, including the infamous Auschwitz. He made four escape attempts and finally made good on his fifth try.
De Ruth constantly sought materials with which to draw, but "The only things we had were the few pieces of cloth we wore," he recalls. By chance, he was transferred to Germany as part of a labor detail and managed to sneak a pencil away from the camp supervisor. "I became a perfect thief during those years," he says. De Ruth drew a mother and child on a scrap of paper he scrounged from the factory where he worked and filled it in with shadings of coffee in various strengths-his finger was his brush. He exchanged the sketch for a piece of bread from a camp guard, and in effect, sold his first painting.
In March of 1945, after being transferred to his native Czechoslovakia, he made his successful escape "knowing every step of the way." After the war, De Ruth became the commissar in a small Czech town and remained in the post for one year, just long enough to forge some documents that allowed him to flee to England. He took up residence in London and enrolled at the Ruskin Art School in Oxford University. He arrived in the USA in 1948.
There are times in the life of a painter when his dedication to his art is overshadowed by the immediate requirements of self-preservation. This was one of those times! From '48 to 1955 he supported himself by working at night, earning his way painting designs on neckties and bathroom cups...
