When he was a child, Fritz Proctor IV didnât have to go very far to understand the power of the art of painting.
His father, Fritz Proctor III, was a truck driver who also painted. When he wasnât driving a tanker truck delivering gasoline, the older Proctor favored painting realistic scenes and landscapes. Now retired, he paints full-time. He was an early influence on his son.
