William Ahrendt

---

William Ahrendt paints portraits and figures of Native Americans based on his love of history. His style is that of the Old Masters, as he begins a painting by mixing and applying a batch of egg tempera as the foundation, building light and dark. Later he applies layers of oil paint, and the result is a painting that glows. It is a technique he learned at the Max Doerner Department of Painting and Restoration at the Fine Arts Academy in Munich, Germany.
