Cliff traveled extensively in this country, studying the contents of art museums, and in 1954 spent the summer bicycling about Western Europe with a friend, Don Koestner, visiting many major art museums and studying the work of world masters to broaden his education.
His work has been exhibited locally and regionally in many shows, such as the Minnesota State Fair, Twin City Annual, American-Swedish Institute, St Olaf College, in Northfield, etc. and he is represented in numerous private collections.
Cliff worked from his home studio in Ninninger, near Hastings, in the woods along the Mississippi. He and his wife Barbara raised their 3 sons in the home he built for his family.
“To filter nature through one’s own sensibilities, to transmit one’s feelings and impressions of life to canvas, is at once a challenge and a great joy.”
