Robert Wille unveil new painting at Middletown Library

Robert Wille's latest painting of the Belford area is on display at the Middletown Township Public Library

For the past three years, Robert (Bob) Wille’s paintings of the Belford, NJ waterfront seascapes and landscapes have been featured in the meeting rooms and periodicals sections of the Middletown Township Public Library, 55 New Monmouth Road, Middletown, NJ. Bob is excited to unveil his newest painting depicting docked ships in Belford, inspired by “the chaos and jumble of the masts”, currently on display next to the fireplace in the Library’s lounge area.

Bob’s interest in art began many years ago in New York, where his uncle Warren was a talented portrait painter. His parents gave him a John Gnagy art set for Christmas. He has been painting ever since.

He has studied privately with Fred Sklenar, Sr. and Arthur Ludov and received his formal art education at The High School of Art And Design and at Pratt Institute. Bob’ paintings have been exhibited in galleries and shows in New York, New Jersey and Utah and will remain on display at the Middletown Township Public Library for public viewing.
