About the Artist: Richard Bollinger was born in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, and grew up in Lansdowne. He attended Temple University and Hussian School of Art in Philadelphia majoring in illustration. His professional career began in 1969 where he worked with a design firm in Philadelphia. Working as both illustrator and designer, his creative and flexible style afforded him a wide range of projects and commissions, from creating simple spot drawings in children's books to complex detailed illustrations for the United States Navy. In the early 70's, he accepted a position as Art Director with a Chester County advertising agency. It was there that he began to develop his skills as a painter. By the mid 70's, his work as a fine artist was rewarded with his first solo exhibition at the Chadds Ford Gallery. When the show sold out, it provided the springboard for him to leave the world of commercial art and devote full time to painting. He has since had over 35 solo shows.
Today, his art is represented in over 125 galleries across America. He has been honored by the Neographic Association with gold and silver awards of excellence on numerous occasions. He was selected by the United States Department of State "Arts in Embassies Program" which promoted and exhibited his work around the world.
Bollinger was awarded the commission to produce the official commemorative painting for Valley Forge National Historic Park for their centennial celebration. He is frequently commissioned by corporate and charitable organizations. Over 150 of his original works have been reproduced as signed, limited editions. His paintings can be found in private and corporate collections across the country.
Bollinger's home and studio are located in West Chester, PA where he lives with his wife Pat. They have four grown children and seven absolutely brilliant grandchildren. About the Art: Chester County, 1831 - John Trimble sets out early. Guiding his heavy wagon, bursting with grain, toward the merchants waiting in Philadelphia, he is grateful for the warming rays of the morning sun. Crunching through frozen ruts and deep puddles, he approaches the great oak on the Ashbridge property. Pausing briefly to admire the rich early colors of day, he begins to recall the times when he made this journey with his grandfather, Nathan. Oh, the stories he had of that old tree and that old house! How he could spin the tales as they journeyed together on that well traveled path. It was a tradition that he loved. Little did he know that in just a few years that old road would become our nation's first toll highway ... and that over a century later that old house would still be occupied and serve as a landmark for countless generations to come.
Today that road is known as US Route 30 but, in fact, was the original route of the Lancaster Turnpike, commonly known as the Pennsylvania Turnpike. It has been named "Ashbridge House" for the family who called the property home for so many years.
This edition was printed on the finest quality 100% acid free paper. Each print has been personally inspected, signed and numbered by the artist.
