Haile King-Rubie was introduced to art at an early age. It became an avenue for the young artist to express his admiration for the meaningful people, places, and events he experienced on a daily basis. His unique way of embracing and interpreting the world around him led to his creation of some of the most sensitive, imaginative and vhivid art of his time. Being an artist has not only expanded Haile’s tools for communication, but has earned him a place in the annals of art and in the hearts of all who know him and have been touched by his work.

Haile’s life as an artist has earned him recognition, awards, and friendships that he could only dream of. When he began painting, he never thought he was doing it to become an artist. He was doing it because he enjoys it, and it calms him down. Over time, he realized that people were becoming fond of his work.
