The more I studyBold Ecuadorian artist, the more fascinated I become with them. Earlier this
year I painted and exhibit with Oswaldo Guayasamin who was also from Ecuador. The exaggerated hands seem to be of great importance to both of these artists, particularly Kingman who was known as the painter of hands. I so much enjoy painting these art museum oil paintings. It gives me time to bury myself in art history, visiting the masters and their work and when I am painting them makes me wonder what was going on in their lives at the time that painted that particular painting, why that stroke, why that color, why that texture. A wonderful experience.

Eduardo Kingman (1913-1998) was one of Ecuador's greatest artists of the 20th century, among the art circles of other master artists such as Oswaldo Guayasamin and Camilo Egas.

Kingman was born in Loja, Ecuador on February 3, 1913.[ He first studied under Victor Mideros at the Escuela de Bellas Artes, in Quito. Further studies took him to Venezuela, Peru, Bolivia and finally to San Francisco Art Institute, California (1945-1946).

People from the United States first became acquainted with Kingman's art in 1939, when he assisted Camilo Egas with the paintings and decorations for the Ecuadorian Pavilion at the New York World's Fair.
