Roger D. Arndt began to see the world through an artistic eye
at the age of twelve, when he set out on his journey into the world
of fine art.
In the early 1970's, at the age of fourteen, Roger became
inspired by the art of Loren D. Adams, Jr., a well-known seascape
artist who was working out of Vancouver's Granville Island district.
Roger became an apprentice to Adams. Through careful observation
and Adam's mentoring, Roger nurtured his own talent. He learned how
to put paint on canvas, and express his vision through his brushes.
Roger's first one-man show at Vancouver's PNE was followed by a
series of traveling shows with the Paul Thomas Exhibitions. In those
early years, Roger focused mainly on seascapes while his talent
blossomed and grew.
