Watercolor Gang, a Director of the San Antonio School of Art, and
president of the Artist and Designers Society. For many years he was an
instructor at Trinity University, the Jewish Community Center of San

After his Honorable Discharge from the Air Force, Collins Joined the
Pitluk Group in 1953 and worked for them until he retired in 1988 as Sr.

elaborate brochure was printed in large quantities and was distributed

millions is the symbol that he created for the San Antonio Spurs. He
developed many corporate symbols including those for Zachry, La Quinta,
Market Square, and many more advertising designs.

of 13 teachers covering every facet of Commercial and Fine Art. He was
an Instructor of Advertising Art and Design at Trinity University. He
also instructed at the San Antonio Craft Center and the San Antonio Art
Institute. For over a dozen years he held Watercolor Classes in Fine Art

proficient in brush and pallet knife in oils on canvas.
Collins has held the Office of President of the Artist and Designers
Society (1964) and the President of the Texas Watercolor Society (2003).
He has earned, through his many awards in fine art, the honor of

many Art Galleries with numerous Shows. Collectors throughout the world
have purchased his original paintings and Limited Edition Prints.
