The H.F.A. studio also hosts professional artist, Tom Sadler, one of the South’s premier fine artists in landscape painting and an expert in traditional painting styles.  He is on the adjunct faculty of the Crealde Arts Center in Winter Park, FL.  Mr. Sadler graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in studio art from Auburn University. He did further studies at the School of Visual Arts and the Whitney Museum in New York City, while working at the Cooper Hewitt Museum.  His services as an in-painter are in high demand due to his unequalled skill at matching color.  He has worked in collaboration with Mr. Hollingsworth on literally thousands of restorations over the last 15 years.
