Artist: Rod Flower (The Woodlands, TX)
Underwriter: Dr. Robert & Renee Neville
Rod Flower, a Woodlands resident since 1998, enjoys a diverse art background that includes portraits, murals, illustration, sculpture, and set design. A graduate of Oregon College of Art, Rod combined his love of narrative art and history in recreating scenes for galleries specializing in Western Art. Since 2005, Rod has drawn inspiration from collaborating with other artists, theater directors, and interior designers in creating 3D artworks in foam.
With this versatile medium, used in conjunction with faux painting techniques, Rod had discovered his niche. From whimsical to classical sculpture, foam allowed Rod to interpret and combine elements of fantasy and realism, architecture and nature. Rod’s work can be found in collections from Canada and the United States, to Colombia, Brazil, and France.
