The Works of Stewart Klein
Recognized in art circles of New York and Boston, Stewart Klein was a graduate of the Franklyn School of Design and of the Pratt Institute. He built a successful career as a graphic artist and oil painter then moved to San Antonio late in life. While in San Antonio, he became well known for traditional landscapes and still-lives.
Among his many logos, he designed the logo painting of “Voices de la Luna”, San Antonio’s poetry and arts magazine. His mission-series portraits were commissioned and gifted to the university in honor of Dr. Maria Hernandez Ferrier’s inauguration as the first President of Texas A&M–San Antonio in 2010.
