William Sawczuk

1945 -
Painter

Origin: United States
Born: 1945, Detroit, Michigan

Born in Detroit, Michigan, Bill Sawczuk always enjoyed drawing, and began painting Western images before he'd even seen the West. Sawczuk earned degrees in mechanical engineering and architecture and became self-employed as a technical artist working on defense project logistics before pursuing a career in fine art. In 1976 he enrolled at the Rocky Mountain School of Art in Denver, spending a short time there; most of his art education has been "self taught." Gleaning information from art books and magazines, visiting museums and galleries, as well as simple "trial and error" while painting and drawing have been his art instructional methods.
