Garry Pound,
a native of Columbus, Georgia, grew up in an artistic
environment: his mother is a well-known painter
and his father is an architect and expert draftsman.
With the encouragement of his parents, he has managed
to turn his love for the arts into a successful
career.
Garry attended
Sewanee, the University of the South, where he graduated
with honors in 1977. He spent a year at Indiana
State University working on his Masters in Art,
then he went to Ohio University where he was awarded
the Siegfried Scholarship for overall achievement
in graduate studies. He taught classes in art appreciation
and critical analysis, receiving his doctorate in
Comparative Arts, a cultural history degree, in
1985.
Dr. Pound
returned to Columbus, where he now works as a professional
artist. He is well known for his portraits, and
he has a strong interest in the human figure as
well as landscape.
