Chicago native George Botich studied at the Art
Institute of Chicago, the American Academy of
Art in Chicago as well as the Athens School of
Fine Arts in Greece.
The artists charming French storefronts are
reflections of his concentrated efforts with on-
location painting in Paris. Each image is a part
of everyday city living; an image that one sees
each day but may not take the time to notice.
These images are the neighborhood bookstore
with their displays in the window, or the floral
shop just around the corner. Simple scenes, yet
images that tell a story, leading one to wonder
about the old building with its row of shops and
the proprietor who knows each customer by
name.
This artist weaves a tale in each work giving the
viewer a gift of himself and the gift of the
imagination where each person who looks at
these nostalgic scenes can take with them their
own personal story.
