STANISLAUS J. SOWINSKI known as "Stan" to friends and family, was born in Milwaukee in 1927, and died at his home in Rancho Bernardo in January, 2010.
Stan studied art in Milwaukee before joining the Navy in 1945 and painted during his entire 26-year military career. Retiring in 1971, Stan painted, taught art courses, exhibited and completed many special commissions in the San Diego area. Recent installations include a 6' X 18' oil diptych for UCSD, and altar design plus five large oil paintings, for Saint Mary's Church in Escondido, CA.
Stan Sowinski was an accomplished painter, iconographer, illustrator and teacher. He is listed in AskArt, and Davenport's Guide, and is included in the International Who's Who, Who's Who in the West, Who's Who in American Art, and Falk's Who Was Who in American Art.
WADE CLINE specializes in moody urban scenes of San Diego, with mid-century architecture, rainy streets, eateries, and that low energy time right at dusk. Influenced by Wayne Thiebaud and Edward Hopper, he has exhibited at the Crocker and Barrios art galleries in Sacramento, the Pratt and La Jolla Artists' galleries in San Diego, and in "Art Alive" at the San Diego Museum of Art.
"Painting the environment that we're inured to sharpens our confusion, for better or worse. Cline's diffusing fog and obscure streets, his private no traffic time of day, his candor on how difficult it is to get any scene onto canvas- all replicate the doubt that artists (certainly the best ones) face in the fire of creation".
Thomas Larson, "Last Light", in the The San Diego Reader, August 26th, 1999.
