John Dittmar



Snowy Owl


12" x 9"
My formal education is in Electrical and Systems Engineering. After retiring I took up woodcarving and took instruction from three world champion woodcarvers in carving and painting.

I became a docent at the Desert Museum and took pencil drawing classes there. In August 2022 I began taking Pastel lessons from Karyn Vampotic at All Seasons Senior Living.
​
I prefer painting realistic portraits of pets and other animals. I became a member of TPS in October 2023.
