Biography

American, Roger Painter was a life long friend of Gordon Hutchens and Tobias Tomlinson who all went to Urbana High school together in Urbana, Illinois. Roger was one year ahead of Gordon and Tobias. Gordon lived about 4 blocks from my house, and we certainly hung out together in our "gang" of friends. We all immigrated to Canada within a year or two of each other. Roger graduated in sculpture, but learned production throwing from Gordon Hutchens and Byron Johnstad.
