The paintings of Bill Ohrmann
run the gamut from peaceful idyllic paradise to apocolyptic, from heart
wrenching to inspiring. The style of his earlier works was inspired
by realism painters such as Charles Russel and Frederic Remington.
His more recent paintings show the influence of Vincent Van Gogh, Celini,
and Heironymous Bosch. Many of his paintings were inspired by the
poetry of John Haines. Other paintings
make reference to prose or poetry by Rudyard Kipling, Jack London, Isak
Dinesen, and other writers.
