Charles Oliver’s Biography- “A Path Less Traveled, It Ain’t Pretty”
Charles Oliver was born in Philadelphia, Pa. 1948. The first of 6 children, He lived in an inner city neighborhood in West Philadelphia that was known as Brewery Town by the locals. This was simply because of all the neighborhood beer breweries. The family moved to New Jersey after he had attended Catholic schools. There he lived in a housing development that was populated mainly by blue-collar workers escaping the squalor and growing crime of the big cities. His father worked as a commercial artist doing mainly architectural renderings and advertising displays. When Charles first started attending public schools he was quickly moved to 7th grade textbooks by his teacher although he was in the 4th grade. Charles gradually became more and more bored with school and turned to more exciting diversions like hanging on the corner with his gang of friends. By the time he was a teen he barely went to school at all and was always in trouble at school and home. He would often runaway and during the summers he would go back to Philly and live on the streets and sleep in cars. He hung out with the last white street corner gang in West Philly known as “The Wrecking Crew”. West Philly was now an all black neighborhood.

All the while from the time Charles could hold a crayon he continued to create art. It has always been his place to turn for inner peace and satisfaction. His father always encouraged him to do his art and instructed him when there was time.
Charles started selling his works in 1971 under the tutelage of Estelle Snellenberg in Philadelphia and worked as an Art Consultant for her firm Estelle Colwin Associates. While there he oversaw fine artists shows that exhibited works by Chagall, Cezanne, Monet and many other world and nationally known artists. Of course Charles always made sure his works were also represented.
In 1976 he began working in the commercial and advertising art fields as he soon found out you can’t live on selling fine art alone at least as a very young man. The term starving artist was a reality and Charles had spent enough years he felt going hungry. Charles worked as a graphics artist and art director at several well established ad agencies and publications. He excelled in design and was quite successful but, the scourge of drugs always found...
