Lynden Saint Victor, Oil Painter

Lives in: Santa Fe, NM

Art Discipline: Oil Paint

Lynden Saint Victor is a rarity among acclaimed artists - he never studied art. In keeping with a New Year’s resolution to expand his horizons, Saint Victor dipped into his first oil paints on January 1, 2002 and began to make pictures that speak volumes.

In 2003, the first formal presentation of his work resulted in a sold out show, including thirty-five additional Paint to Order originals, media coverage, multiple gallery offers and a publishing contract.

Saint Victor’s works have a uniquely definitive look and feel. Masterfully melding the real and surreal, his bold and beautiful characters grace the walls of some of the world’s most majestic estates as well as humble abodes of those who have likewise been moved by the brooding sensuality of these works or art, each a virtual novel unto itself.

Saint Victor is also an internationally syndicated cartoonist under another name. His daily comic panel, Pardon My Planet, is published by King Features Syndicate and distributed to over 150 daily newspapers throughout the United States and Canada.
