Courtesy of Fritz ProctorArtist Fritz Proctor drove three of his large paintings to Buffalo for the grand opening of the Buffalo Art Movement gallery. When he was a child, Fritz Proctor IV didnât have to go very far to understand the power of the art of painting. His father, Fritz Proctor III, was a truck driver who also painted. When he wasnât driving a tanker truck delivering gasoline, the older Proctor favored painting realistic scenes and landscapes. Now retired, he paints full-time. He was an early influence on his son.
