Episode 002 - Roy Boswell - “Midwestern Life”

“Showing beauty to the world when it’s easy not to see it” - Roy

In so many ways, Roy reminds me of myself. Roy is an Indiana farm kid that graduated from Purdue University without the intent to ever become a full time professional artist. Yet 11 years in to painting full time, I can confidently say Roy is one of the best impressionist painters living in the midwest.

Born in 1985, Roy Boswell was raised on a family farm in southeastern Indiana. At an early age he took interest in art and architecture and went on to study landscape architecture and design at Purdue University. It wasn’t until after graduating that he took up fine art. Currently Roy paints in Oil and Acrylic, working in plein air, but also from field studies in the studio. Storytelling is a large part of his process, creating love filled letters about the Midwestern farm. He also works digitally doing illustration.
