Stan Polson
Info: Stan was born in 1971 in Reddersburg Free state but spent most of his formative years in Pretoria and Rustenburg where he matriculated in 1989.
After school and military training he found himself in the motorglass industry where he spent 16 years in management.
Stan realized at an early age that his sketches looked different to other children's and took art at school level to embrace this talent , winning him a gold certificate in 1987 at the age of sixteen (sanlam art competition)
After school art was put aside for the sake of a career and only after 11 years at thirty years of age in 2001 did he realize something was missing in his life.
Stan took up art part-time again , selling pieces to friends and family , and in 2006 due to unforeseen events in the workplace decided to take up art full time.
Stan is inspired by all things beautiful and life in general."I believe that colour plays a vital role in life as it has the ability to set the mood instantaneously and therefore the vivid colour use in my paintings."
Stan paints in acrylic and oil and two definite favorite genres are landscapes and abstracts of which he has done numerous corporate commissions in the past few years which include Vision placements , Rustenburg;Protea hotel the lakes , Benoni ;Floreat hotel ,Sabie to mention a few.
