Tyrone Lewis was raised in a family of artists. His maternal grandfather, Hans Hubbard, a respected Fort Worth artist, settled near Mena, Arkansas, and always welcomed his grandson into his studio. Thus did Tyrone learn to appreciate and create art.
Desiring to pursue an artistic career, he graduated with a B.F.A. degree from the Memphis College of Arts, and then worked as an interior designer for commercial properties and as a home furnishings fashion coordinator for Federated Department Stores. Always he painted.
His work has appeared in various national publications, such as Southern Accents, as well as various art and southwestern magazines. His work is also selected for various Corporate collections, such as The Butler Center for Arkansas Studies, the Stephens Corporation, etc.
Tyrone, lives in southwestern Arkansas with his wife Barbara, where they paint, sculpt, and breed Egyptian Arabian horses.
Of his work Tyrone says, “Having been influenced by my grandfather, my first endeavors in the visual arts were portrayals of the landscape. Over the years I have identified myself with various imagery and venues, yet I always come back to the landscape and its forms.”
