VIEW THE CATALOG OUR 2009 ONE-MAN EXHIBITION OF LONG'S WORK

Internationally known Houston artist, Bert L. Long, Jr. presents his earlier paintings and self made frames alongside his latest body of work entitled, "My Daily Bread." A self taught artist, Long received his formal education in Adult Education from UCLA in 1972. Working in a variety of mediums, he has gained national and international recognition throughout his career for his thought provoking art.

Long describes the philosophy behind his work as "a quest to help people diagnose their inner self," believing his art to be "the vehicle to help facilitate the process."

When asked to psychoanalyze Long and his latest body of work, Kirk Hopper, gallery owner and long-time collector, says that he "isn't sure what all lies deep in the recesses of Bert's psyche, but it seems to be the result of at least some serious swagger and a whole lot of cornbread."
