Hugh DeWitte is a Dallas based artist currently living near the High Five Interchange, one of the tallest highway overpasses in the world. This was the inspiration for his most recent works and the exhibition coming to the Forrest and Virginia Green Gallery in November, Circular Sightings & The Hum of Humanity. These "highwayscapes" express the energy, spirit, and beauty found along these fast-paced roads of the metroplex, a metaphor for the hum of everyday modern life. Using layers, circular motions, long strokes, and primal markings, DeWitte explores the nature of our urban landscape.
Hugh Dewitte has a BFA from Kansas City Art Institute with a major in Design and a minor in Sculpture. He began his career in Graphic Design working at Robert A. Wilson & Associates and applied award-winning creative thinking to several Fortune 50 clients for over 30 years earning him multiple national and international innovation awards including a design patent for Procter & Gamble. He opened an art studio in 2022 where he has expanded on his fine arts career, pursuing various projects in printmaking, metal sculpture, and fine art commissions.
