Rudy

Rudy Grunwald, owner of the Courtyard Gallery in Mystic, CT and collector of ancient and modern military memorabilia.

Once or twice a year Rudy declares "Uniform Day" and the artists of the Gallery put on authentic full uniforms from his wardrobes of US Civil War, Germany's various wars and campaigns, Russia and England.

This oil painting is the only portrait that I have painted. Portraits are not my favorite subject.

About Me

Name: John W. Malenda

Location: Ledyard, Connecticut, United States

I am an Elected Artist of the Mystic Museum of Art. I studied both literal and abstract painting at the University of New Hampshire under the direction of John Laurent in the late 50’s. I do not paint in a repetitive style or color scheme. I feel each of my works must be unique; each must be a new creation. I also incorporate my extensive background of physics, mathematics and engineering into my abstract paintings. I have been privileged to study with the world-renowned impressionist artist Leonard E. Wren. both in Jamaica and in Washington. I also studied with Foster Caddell. until his retirement. My work has been shown at the COURTYARD GALLERY in Mystic, CT since it opened in 2004 and In the COURTYARD ON MAIN. My work has been shown in numerous solo and group shows in New England. I have been a judge of the Annual Mystic Outdoor Art Festival on four occasions I had a very large solo exhibit at the Hoxie Gallery in Westerly, Rhode Island in April 2008 at which I showed 140 paintings in various media and subjects.
