Paul Galushkin of The Greatest Story podcast recently interviewed Douglas Van Howd. We invite you to pull up a chair and enjoy listening to Doug's stories firsthand!

"Based in his studio in Auburn, CA, Doug’s lifelike wildlife and western creations have earned him a place of honor, with his works displayed in prestigious locations such as the White House, the office of the Secretary of the Interior, and the Reagan Library.

Doug shares the fascinating story of how a prophecy, foretelling that his work would be seen by kings, queens, and presidents, came to pass over the course of his career. His dedication to honing his craft opened doors to remarkable opportunities, including being appointed as a White House artist under President Ronald Reagan. Every piece Doug creates tells a unique story, reflecting his love for art and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects.

Doug’s journey is ongoing, and he believes his best work is still to come, demonstrating his endless passion and commitment to his craft. Join us as we explore the life and art of Doug Van Howd, an artist whose works continue to inspire and captivate audiences around the world." -Paul Galushkin
