(b. 1947)
Charles Munday was born in Asheville, North Carolina in 1947. He obtained his BFA degree from the University of Tennessee in 1970, and his MFA from the University of Buffalo in 1972, Munday, known for his clean watercolor designs of period automobiles, considered his work to be realistic and expressionistic, but not necessarily rigid. His work engages rather than confronts the viewer. He used the media of watercolor, lithography, serigraphy, and etching. He studied the traditional methods of etching at the University of Salzberg in Germany in 1975. Munday was also a graduate teaching assistant under the art department at Buffalo State College from 1970-1972, and assistant professor of printmaking at Rosary Hill College in Snyder, New York from 1974-75. A member of the Pattern Artists, and Buffalo Society of Artists, he has exhibited all over the country and throughout the Western New York area, including the Albright-Knox, the Burchfield, Chautauqua Art Association, and several SUNY colleges.
