As a young boy, Rudy Bostic had few toys and resorted to cutting out his own cowboys and horses. At the age of 17, Rudy was asked to draw some religious paintings to be displayed in the church. To save on expense, he used cardboard and house paint. Today, he is a prolific artist who still prefers to use the cardboard because of it's smooth surface.

Rudolph V. Bostic is gaining recognition as a talented self-taught artist and is included in the collection of The Mennello Museum of American Folk Art, in Orlando, Florida.
