Visual
After 20 years of live performance work Mr. Fouther has revived his visual art projects as a way of continuing to dance on the page and as a source of fundraising for his creative work with children. Based at a local school in his community Mister Bobby, as his students fondly call him, teaches through a creative process that allows the student to become successful as well as understand the entrepreneurial aspects of the art world. Currently Mr. Fouther, a 2009 “Spirit of Portland” award winner has shown artwork in city hall and continually has featured work with “Colored Pencils:Arts & Culture Night” a New Portland project sponsored by the City of Portland’s Office of Human Relations as well as locations and events throughout the metropolitan area.
