Ragan Gennusa
Fresh
out of college, Ragan Gennusa turned down a job offer for $900 a month in favor
of a $400 job as an artist for an Austin, Texas printing company.
He then took a low-paying job as a staff artist for the Texas Parks and
Wildlife. While working there, Ragan painted subjects of his own choosing at
night and on weekends. Having been promoted to supervisor of the Art Department,
the drudgery of administrative work took its toll, and he quit the agency and
signed an exclusive contract with an Austin Art Gallery. This gave him the time
to concentrate on his art which improved dramatically.
"One of the things I like about art is that you never quit learning and you keep
improving. You shouldn't get in a rut or bored because there's always a new,
more challenging element to conquer. My art career has been a long process of
learning."
Ragan was selected 1985-86 State Artist of Texas. His work is collected
nationwide.
