Robert was born in Bensburg near Koln, Germany. He immigrated to Canada at the
age of 19 and arrived in Kingston where he worked for a period of time as a
cabinet maker
and later moved to Ontario’s north to work in mining. In northern Ontario he
began his painting career. Later he moved back to Kingston to work in textiles
at Dupont Canada Inc.
and in 1988 he pursued his passion for painting full time.
A versatile artist, Robert uses different mediums and styles to his perfection.
His pen & ink sketches of non-objective art and urban scrapes have been
commissioned by many
small businesses and corporations. In 1987 a book of his drawings was published
“Whig Standard Pen & Ink drawings by Robert A. Blenderman”.
Painting styles include realism (urban & landscapes & still-life) and
semi-abstract & abstract (non-objective art). With his palette of bold colours
he is able to convey on canvas his passion for life.
He has had to date over 100 solo and group art exhibitions. Private and public
collections of his work are across Canada, U.S.A. and Europe. In 2006 a book was
published
of his urbanscapes “Kingston a City in Canada, Paintings by Robert A. Blenderman”.
