Overview
A first generation Abstract Expressionist artist, Dugmore studied under Thomas Hart Benton at the Kansas City Art Institute in 1940 and then under Clyfford Still at the California School of Fine Arts in San Francisco after the end of World War II. Still had a great influence on the development of Dugmore's art. Ernest Briggs was one of his fellow students at the time and would become a lifelong friend. Dugmore was considered by some to be "the West Coast's answer" to the Abstract Expressionist movement that was firmly rooted in New York City.
