Carl Valente (American, b.1928)
Birth Place: Cleveland
Biography:
Valente’s talent was discovered at the age of 17 when he won a National Art Contest receiving a scholarship to the Cleveland Art Institute. He worked for the Los Angeles Herald Examiner, where he was a staff-artist, illustrator and designer of the Sunday color magazines, including California Living and TV Weekly for 22 years. Upon leaving the commercial field, he turned to creating oils on canvas, focusing on landscapes, seascapes and still life. Original works were sold to galleries nationwide as collectors recognized his talent. In the late 1960’s Valente joined Bently House where his work is published and distributed throughout the United States and abroad.
