Quad Cities Convention and Visitors Center recently issued the following announcement.

During the month of February the Smith Studio and Gallery, in downtown Geneseo, is sponsoring an extended exhibition of the paintings of Brad Bisbey. This is an exhibition of eighteen figurative paintings that show the female form at times of contemplation, or when being involved with her surrounding environment.

Brad Bisbey began drawing and painting at the age of 9 and decided early on to pursue a career in fine art …particularly painting. He graduated from St. Ambrose University with a B.A. Degree in Art. Brad also studied with renowned portrait painter Daniel Greene in Chicago. An oil painter for many years, Brad developed an allergy to oil paint and solvents and had to find another medium in which to work. Acrylic paint was a possible solution. After getting used to the acrylic, Brad wouldn’t return to oil paint, even if he could. Brad lives in Moline, Illinois in the same house in which he grew up.
