Truman Hosner teaches a natural way to draw and paint the figure outdoors and inserting it into the landscape. In the tradition of painters like Joaquin Sorolla, he uses observation techniques of light, shadow, and temperature to show the student how to develop fast, natural approaches to working with the figure en plein air.

“We know what we are, but know not what we may be.” – William Shakespeare

Hosner, W. Truman

Born in Detroit, Michigan William Truman Hosner earned his BFA at Wayne State University, and went on to study illustration at the Center for Creative Studies, College of Art and Design in Detroit where he eventually returned to teach. Over his 17 years as a professional illustrator, his assignments included, among others, The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Field and Stream magazine, CBS-Fox Video, and Reader’s Digest. At the peak of a very successful career in commercial art, Hosner re-focused himself: studying under two master painters at the Scottsdale Artists School: Harley Brown and Dan Gerhartz. Soon, plein-air painting captured his passion. For two decades Hosner was fortunate to have the personal mentoring of Max Altekruse, himself a student of the renowned Frank Reilly of the Art Students League in New York City. Paintings by Truman Hosner have been featured in national and international museum exhibitions, and collections ranging from New York City . . . to California . . . to Canada . . . to Europe . . . to Asia.
