Note:	Raymond Howell: An African-American painter and printmaker, Raymond Howell emerged from a difficult childhood to become one of the most respected artists of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay area. By the age of thirty he was supporting himself through his art. In the mid 1960's, Raymond Howell opened Art Associates West, a gallery and art school in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district. In the following years, Raymond Howell exhibited his art throughout the United States. His silkscreens were included in International Art Expositions in both New York and San Francisco. Retrospective exhibitions of his art took place at Stanford University, 1999, and at the Oakland Museum of California, 2002.
	“My career began at age eight, when I was required to do life-size images of my second grade classmates on the blackboard, punishment for sketching in class. My formal schooling ended by the fifth grade. After 'graduating' from reform school and foster homes, I dedicated myself to art. I am both artistically and acedemically self-educated.” *
	Concentrating largely upon African-American subjects, Raymond Howell's paintings and prints depict street and city scenes and portrayals of children and musicians, including studies of Miles Davis, Illinois Jacquet and Diana Ross. Raymond Howell was also a founding member and director of Project Dare, an art school for minority children.
	Golden Gateway, San Francisco is a striking example of Raymond Howell's silkscreen techniques. Uniquely combining elements of both realism and surrealism he has crafted a large and beautiful impression of the waterfront at dusk dominated by patches of blues, greens and yellows.
