He also has written two books, “Watercolor Composition Made Easy,” and “How to Sketch with Watercolor.” His personal goal is to teach as many people to draw and paint as possible through his workshops, art gallery and weekly newsletters. He studied at the American Academy of Art in Chicago and worked at two major advertising agencies in Chicago as an illustrator. He is also an art instructor and now he teaches all over the country. He is particularly recognized for his watercolor scenes of his beloved city, Chicago. He is now focusing on his newly formed business BeckerArtLLC. Visit his website at www.beckerart.net
