December 27, 2011 Books news in Grand Rapids,Michigan, United States of America
TR (Thomas Rundquist, M.A. LPC) created prize winning paintings and published books or games and ebooks going back to 1970. This was after he got his 2nd Lt Commission (Infantry) Army ROTC 1969.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Grand Rapids,
Michigan,
United States of America
(Free-Press-Release.com) December 27, 2011 --
TR has been in art books and most recently in www.artprize.org 2011 competing for 10 prizes from $7,000 to $250,000 in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He showed in The South and also in a competition at Raymond Duncan Gallery in Paris, France years back. There he won a bronze award voted by the public.
He feels that art needs to be original to be a success. "Artists need to express what is in them naturally and hope that it attracts awards or press." He never attended art school, but was accepted to University of Michigan's undergrad art school. This was after he had success on his own in the early 1970's. He just started painting what was natural,to him but on both sides of his family he inherited his artistic ability. He feels that the little lessons from his grandfather and other artists were just the basic ideas.
He feels that too much training in how to do art defeats the original art one must do for recognition.
As far as published books and ebooks, he again did these in his own research and editing. His first game was Horse is Boss, a simulation based on Monopoly, but tells how addicts hustled in Detroit in 1970. It was featured in the Sunday Detroit News at that time. Later NIMCO and National School Products had it in their High School Health Catalogs. This simulation is in its 2nd Edition.
His books and ebooks are on amazon, Kindle, and Android Market.. Also he is on Barnes and Noble as well. He just based his works on the research he started as a small child reading the comics and writing the truths. This he did in his own computer type language in the late 1940's and early 50's. He let his desire to learn take him and his curiosity where it might.
The desire to learn must not be killed in classes. Oxford University in Great Britain encourages independent studies and the students meet with their tutor periodically rather than have their curiosity killed by teachers forcing knowledge to be memorized and thrown up on tests.
