About The Teacher:
The Silvermine College Of Art was a special place for the artists who were involved. The unique and
uncompromising commitment underscored an explosive atmosphere of discovery. All agree that the spirit of
art flourished in that hyper accelerated atmosphere. As the teaching assistant to Dean, Bob Gray, River
formed diverse perspectives on teaching. His broad outlook was also informed by the other art schools he
attended. The Cleveland Institute Of Art, Art Students League, School Of Visual Art, Yale School Of Art
B.F.A., M.F.A., and Oxford University Ruskin School Of Drawing.
The variety of exposure to art and ideas continued with travel. United Kingdom, Ireland, France, Belgium,
Switzerland, Italy, Greece and extensive trips throughout U.S.A. Primary residence in Weston Connecticut
and New York’s Hudson River Valley grounded intellect and sense of community. River has combined a
love of artistic discovery with old masters’ knowledge and cutting edge technology. In teaching, this wealth
of experience provides a dynamic resource for his students.
“As we discover art, we discover our interior language. This language enables us to converse with ourselves
and simultaneously with the universal. Art is extremely generous in that it rewards all who participate. My
goal with all students is to equip them with the tools of discovery, and an instinct for the truth of beauty.”
