Wolfgang Oehry was born and raised in Europe. Liechtenstein, Switzerland and France, to be specific. He pursued a successful musical career until 1987, when he immigrated to Florida in 1987. Wolfgang, or "Wolf", as his friends call him, lived on the East coast for seven years. In 1994, he relocated to Naples and became the editor for the Wilkommen magazine in English and German language.
Wolfgang, has been a painting and drawing artist all his life and in the 70's and early 80's, he produced many fine pictures participated in different art shows in Europe. After a disastrous flooding of his studio in 1984, he abandoned painting for the next twenty years and only began painting again in 2004.
His first picture was a portrait in oil of the father of his girlfriend, followed by several other paintings. Two of Wolfgang's paintings are presently displayed in the main lobby of the Von Liebig Art Center in Naples, Florida as part of the "Emotions on the Surface" show.
Recently, Wolf painted a small, but intensely expressive portrait of a crying old man. "The Loss" is what Wolf calls the picture and this and many other paintings and drawings can be seen on Wolf's website.
