My name is Brian Lance Wilhelm. I am 42 years old and I live in Grand Prairie, Texas. I have been oil painting for about 6 years now. I enjoy painting landscapes and have taken an interest in floral painting as well. My influences include Bob Ross, Kevin Hill, Brandon Thomas, Gary Jenkins, Paintings by Justin, Albert Bierstadt, Viktor Yushchevitz, and G. Whitman. I believe oil painting is something good for the mind and can be a relief from the stresses of the world.
