Born in 1946 in Philadelphia, Dennis Wentworth Porter graduated with honors from the Santa Barbara Institute of Art (Brooks) in 1974, studying with Robert Frame, Ray Strong of the California School and abstract expressionist James Jarvace. Porter was primarily influenced by Sargent, Cezanne, Monet and the American abstract expressionists of the 50’s and 60’s. After Brooks, he taught, painted and lectured throughout the Pacific Northwest and Alaska. Using loose, abstracted strokes to achieve realistic impact, Porter is known for his large format oils and richly pigmented pastels.
