Alvin E. Booth, a native of Reading, Pennsylvania, is a self-taught artist. Acrylic on canvas is his preferred medium, and his use of color in landscapes, portraitures and original concepts is highly unusual. His subject matter is the mind, the heart and the soul.
Alvin’s work has been displayed in Southern California and Lancaster, Pennsylvania. He also has ongoing exhibits at various galleries in Richmond, Virginia. His work has been displayed at the Moja Arts Festival in Charleston, South Carolina, the Governor’s Awards for the Arts in Pennsylvania, and Albright College’s Cultural Center. He has had two recent one-man shows at the GoggleWorks Center for the Arts in Reading, Pennsylvania where he also has a studio.
Alvin feels that art, like jazz, is best when improvised.
