One cannot speak of Fuchs without invoking Mark English. They were friends and colleagues teaching at the same academy and competitors for the same jobs as illustrators. Mark retired from the business ten years ago in order to focus on his "Gallery" art. Needless to say that he's taken the field by storm. A feat since all illustrators know that the shift from illustration to gallery art is a very difficult task to accomplish..I can tell you something about it.
BTW, Mark is the only artist still alive of the magic quartet composed of Bob Peak, Bernard Fuchs, Robert Heindel and English..I dread the day..
Sometimes I wish I could enter a painting and just stay there
