Van Hoople was born in Chicago, IL but was referred to as a California artist. He attended the University of Texas and worked for Paramount Studios in Hollywood and apprenticed for Cecil B Demilles and scene director P.T. Blackburn. He was under exclusive contract to Hillside Galleries starting in 1957. His works have received notable recognition throughout the U.S., and he is becoming more recognizable throughout the world. His paintings are characterized by a deep, almost high relief, impasto, as if the paint were cut with a gouge. They are classic Mid Century, blending well with interiors decorated with furnishings and fixtures of the time.
