BIOGRAPHY:
Paul R. Schick made Palm Beach his home in the years just before World War II. Schick was an active member of the Florida Federation of Art, the Palm Beach Art League and the Society of the Four Arts. He entered the US Army in 1943 and served in the Pacific until the end of the War, returning in 1946 to the San Marino, California area, near Los Angeles. Schick traveled extensively about the United States from San Marino to Phoenix, Arizona, across the country to Redding, Connecticut and Palm Beach, exhibiting, lecturing on art, and painting what he called "Landscape Americana", the landscape scene from California to Palm Beach. Six of Schick's Florida scenes were hung in the Governors' lounge of the Florida Building at the 1940 New York World's Fair, one winning a bronze prize for the best representative work of Florida.
