Rey Bustos, Artist and Educator, 11-17-06
Rey Bustos is one of the leading artistic anatomists in the country today. A former freelance illustrator, he is now almost solely dedicated to art education at every level. Mr. Bustos not only has students at the college/university level, but also works with professionals and teachers. Along with his specialty of teaching anatomy through écorché — the teaching of anatomy through sculptural means — he also teaches figure drawing and composition. Mr. Bustos is currently teaching at the Art Center College of Design, Pasadena; the Los Angeles Academy of Figurative Art, Van Nuys; Cal State L.A., Los Angeles; and Disney Feature Animation, Burbank.
Mr. Bustos is also an accomplished artist with two main subjects — figurative drawings and a type of painting he calls SURREAL-REALISM, whereby he uses collage and paint to create a surreal new environment. He is represented by the San Marino Gallery in San Marino, CA.
