Robert Schoeller was a child prodigy, accepted into a famous Linz Austrian art school at 15 years old, and then the Academy of FIne Arts in Vienna.
Schoeller has always been interested in the challenge of expressing the living essence of a human being in its totality and wanted to use the human form more in his art. However, he didn't just want to paint a face, he wanted to be able to depict the emotions, attitudes, character, intentions, moods, etc. behind a face; he wanted to express the spirit of a person as well as their physical appearance. Schoeller's interest in oil painting and, more specifically, in portraiture inspired him to research various masters' techniques for using oils and resins to create paintings that would stand the test of time.
It wasn't long before Schoeller's reputation as a portraitist grew. He began getting commissions throughout Europe, painting everyone from government officials to members of the aristocracy, as well as commissions in the United States. In 1986, Schoeller received what might possibly be his most notable commission. He was asked by The White House to paint the official portrait of George Washington to commemorate the Bicentennial Celebration of the U.S. Constitution.
