ABOUT ME

Robert (Bob) Havens

I was born and raised in the Bayshore area of New Jersey.

I was an outdoorsman from an early age, spending many days hunting in the fields and fishingon the waters of Raritan Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. Many of my paintings are reflections of my childhood and early adulthood.

​

I am an avid fisherman as well as an artist. And now, as a retiree, I have more time to pursue

both interests.

I am a self-taught artist and have taken several art courses over the years, painting with some

locally well-known artists.

I have always had a love for rural settings and buildings which are soon-to-be gone. I have

painted many scenes reflecting these themes.
