From the Artist & Founder of "SnarkArt"...
I've
put together many different things for your viewing pleasure.
This site currently provides a sampling of my artwork, teaching
schedule, résumé/curriculum vitae, information
regarding my new book "Creating
Books & Boxes" (Don't
forget to put a review online, the feedback is great!),
and resources. Below
is a listing of current exhibitions, teaching
schedule (Lawrence
University), and class
reviews. Peruse the area and
if you feel inspired, send your thoughts and questions this
way.
Simply
put, SnarkArt is an artist organization devoted to the practice
of making art and education. Benjamin D. Rinehart, the proprietor,
is a multi-media artist whose main focus is in drawing, painting,
printmaking, and artist's books. Art presents many challenges
that keeps the mind sharp and engaged. Ben is a problem solver
by nature, and it is his passion to find the best possible
solution to any situation. Ben began teaching at the age
of nineteen, and now with over seventeen
years of teaching experience, his goal is
to support other artists throughout the creative process, to
foster a sense of community, and
collaboration.
His motto is, "Whatever I learn, I share with others."
