Realist Artists from Richmond

The current edition of Trinity Episcopal School’s ‘Titan Trail’ features three graduates who are pursuing careers as realist artists – Aaron Pavelis ’00, Jonathan Wurdeman ’93, and Connor O’Keefe ’01. Pavelis graduated from the Florence Academy of Art and is a professional artist concentrating in landscapes and portraiture. Wurdeman and O’Connor both studied in Russia, with Wurdeman having the distinction of being the first American graduate of the Surikov Institute of Art in Moscow. Jonathan Wurdeman’s work is available through the Lazarre Gallery in Charles City, and may be seen here. Connor O’Keefe lives and paints in Richmond, and his work can be seen on his website.
