Into the Black store - 8x10 Acrylic on Canvas Original Painting

This is an original, unframed painting by Billie Dean Shoemate III. Art is acrylic on unframed canvas, as well as signed and dated. Billie Dean Shoemate III is the grandson of a Bob Ross (yeah, that Bob Ross) trained painter. Billie's grandmother was a master painter, and Billie studied her as well as Bob, his whole life. Not picking up a brush until her unfortunate passing, Billie quickly learned that all his observing gave him an eye for creating amazing original art. Wanting to go store more his own way, he still uses his grandmother's brushes, but creates more abstract works derived from the world he sees around him. "All my paintings contain a part of her spirit, I think," Billie states. "Every home should have her in it, I always thought. Every family should know her. Now, in a sense, they can." Billie Dean Shoemate III lives in Paducah, Kentucky with his family and runs Asylum817 Productions, a label for all his artistic endeavors.
