N. ROBERT WAGSTAFF, is a naturalist painter. Born and raised in the Hawaiian Islands, created a special interest for Bob in Hawai'i's native plants and animals. His formal art training was at the Art Center School of Design in Pasadena, California.
After a 30 year career in advertising/design Bob retired to pursue his dream of becoming a fine art painter. Painting in the medium of gouache, his love of nature has guided him towards producing paintings which reflect all of nature's beauty.
