Bob Hart

Since retiring from the College of Education at the University of Georgia, Bob has had more time to devote himself to what makes him happiest, creating and supporting art. His first artistic endeavors were in photography, but now, as a self-taught artist, he experiments with a variety of materials. His painting style continues to evolve, and he also creates sculptures using salvaged materials. Aside from being an artist himself, Bob also supports the other artists in his community through the operation of “The Art Place,” a gallery and studio located in the small town of Crawford, GA. From there he spreads the word about artists in the area and provides a place for their work to be shown. After 9/11/2001, Bob created a Memorial Trail dedicated to those who lost their lives that day. The two-acre area on Bob’s property is open to the public with no admission fee.
