William
Wolk, born in 1951 in Miami, Florida, exhibited his fascination for
drawing at a very early age. By age eight, he was
drawing charcoal portraits free hand and by age nine he had acquired his first
oil painting set and easel. His first professional exhibit was at age sixteen in the first annual Coconut Grove Art Festival where, from his street display, he sold his first nine paintings. At age nineteen, after spending a year in self-study in Florence, Italy, he returned to Miami and had his first one-man-show at The Vasili Gallery in Coral Gables, Florida.
