R. Ellis Orrall is a self-taught artist in Nashville, Tennessee. When he was a child, a well meaning but misguided art teacher told him that he "would never be an artist", which led to his self-proclaimed "fear of art", and he did not paint for 31 years.

Almost exclusively, he paints stories drawn from his own bittersweet childhood memories, sometimes laid out in comic book style, often both painful and humorous. His paintings have now found themselves in the homes of kind people from Boston to Los Angeles to Oslo to Zurich. < Less
