Curtis Arnett Art for Sale and Sold Prices

b. 1950 -

Curtis Arnett is one of the youngest Highwaymen. Inspired to paint at an early age, he attributes most of his success to Hezekiah Baker who mentored him. Ambitious in many ways, he earned a black-belt in karate by the early 1970s.

Curtis was born in 1950 in Greenville, Florida, a small town near the Florida/Georgia line. Curtis and his family moved to Fort Pierce in 1955. He attended Lincoln Park Academy and graduated from Dan McCarty High School.

His interest in art began when he was very young. He enjoyed drawing pictures of favorite characters from popular culture, such as Clark Kent and Lois Lane from Superman comic books. After receiving a watercolor set for Christmas one year, his drawings became paintings.
