Andre Pater was born in Poland and graduated from the Cracow Academy of Fine Arts summa cum laude. He relocated to the United States in 1981 and moved to Kentucky in 1988. There, from his early interest in solely equestrian art, he widened his range into other fields of sporting art. As well as his depictions of the powerful thoroughbreds which dominate the Kentucky racing scene, he has become known for his painting of hunt scenes and sporting dogs, of which Hound in a Kennel is a remarkable example. Andre Paters work was the focus of a major London exhibition in the summer of 2002, supported by some of the greatest names in the world of sporting art and opened by the American Ambassador in London, Mr William Farish, who is himself a noted collector of the artists work. Thirty-one paintings, priced at up to £75,000 each, were on display at the exhibition on the opening night; all thirty-one were sold in less than thirty minutes
