    Randall McKissick
    Educated at the Ringling School of Art and Design, McKissick has pursued a double career as a professional illustrator and fine artist for 25 years. For the past several years, the artist has focused mainly on his fine art painting. McKissick's paintings have traveled the globe, with selected exhibitions in New York City, Chicago, Vail, Honolulu, Capetown, South Africa, and St. Thomas, USVI. Special Collections can be found at Georgia Pacific in Atlanta, AT&T in Jacksonville, the Coca-Cola Company in Atlanta, Umbro International in England and Phillip Morris in New York City. At first glance, McKissick's lively impressionistic paintings of people, animals, and places appear effortlessly spontaneous, as though conceived and executed in an afternoon. They are not. They are elegantly and precisely drawn images with composition, color and atmosphere, deliberately calculated to evoke a specific emotional response. They are the culmination of an exhaustive process in which the artist studies his subject in photographs and videos, mulls over the exact message he intends to convey, and then obsessively compares the painted image in progress to his "mind's eye" until the piece corresponds to that carefully conceived vision. The viewer is pulled into the scene, fascinated by the way the light picks out a detail or the luminous colors point our way to the decisive moment. Whether McKissick is painting a portrait, landscape, animal or architectural environment, his confident brushstrokes and sense of mood and place are powerful statements of the artist's vision. McKissick is also an accomplished portrait painter, with numerous commissions held in collections around the globe. Randall McKissick

    that is what I allway knew as a life interest, my mother gave us kids her house with a life interest, meaning it was ours but she could live in it till her death, then we took possesion.

    Well, I wouldn't buy the house, but, who knows, the guy may be a genius.
    Van Gogh was not appreciated in his lifetime, the only one who ever bought his paintings was his brother Theo.
    Vincent and Theo both died young, and broke.

    This whole story was a typical viral media madhouse how things get screwed up on an issue from person to person.

    If I was close I would try to buy a few of his works. THIS is the kind of publicity that will seriously increase the value of his art after he dies, imo.
    Yeah, I know it sounds a tad ghoulish.
