Kyle Stuckey is an American realist painter who began studying art during his high school years simply because he needed an art credit to graduate. He then fell in love with oil painting as he studied masters like Sargent and Waterhouse. To continue to hone his skills, Kyle took workshops from today’s masters, and became a member of the Putney Painters learning from master artists, Richard Schmid and Nancy Guzik. Over the following decade, he continued to work with oil and develop and refine his impressionistic realism style. Today he enjoys painting an array of subject matter: people, places, and things.
Kyle has spent much time traveling around the world, painting as he goes. Originally from New Hampshire, Kyle has also spent time in Asia, Europe, Central America, and the U.S. west coast. Now he is living in Charleston, SC.
