First of all you have to meet the Artist

Doug Roper resides in San Antonio but spent much of his childhood in Europe, South America, and various parts of the United States. He has had a lifelong exposure to fine art and developed a keen interest in history. Encouragement by local artists, Waldine Tauch and Warren Hunter, lead Doug ot pursue art as a career. He has worked as a commercial artist, but spends the majority of his time creating limited edition bronzes and commissioned water color paintings.

Doug's completed images attain historical and anatomical accuracy that successfully transmit his passion for natural beauty and his belief that art has the power to help the viewer envision and experience the spirit of a person, place and time. Many of his pieces of art focus on southwestern subjects. Doug believes that the Southwest is more a state of mind and spirit than a historical time and place. Through paintings and bronzes, he seeks to remind modern man that at the heart of the Southwest is a sense of freedom, absolute self-determination, total individuality and pervasive spirituality. Doug believes he has aresponsibility to develop and refine his God-given talent and he signs his works with an Icthus as a personal statement of faith.

Doug is a member of the San Antonio Art League and the Coppini Academy of Fine Arts. He has created limited edition bronzes, commissioned sculptures and paintings, including works for Sandhill Shores Beachfront Development, Kelly Air Force Base, Cibilo Wilderness Foundation, private collections and churches. He was one of seven artists whose work was selected as part of the cultural exchange with Koyoto, Japan. He has exhibited in numerous galleries and art shows, and received a variety of awards which recognize the quality and authenticity of his work.
