About Fred Swarr

Fred Swarr, a resident of Mount Gretna, Pennsylvania, has been an active exhibiting painter since 1969.
He has produced artwork of many different types which have culminated in a combination of impressionistic and expressionistic styles that he executes with acrylic paint.

His method of staining raw canvas and overpainting primed canvas with a crackle texture has evolved into his present technique.

Fred's inherent interest in unusual still-life subjects has led to his most successful series of paintings "Wine and Other Vices," that are both intriguingly unique and decorative.
