He thought he would major in business, but changed his mind when he took one art elective during his first year at Rutgers University. From that moment on, William Mammarella knew exactly what he wanted to do with the rest of his life. He wanted to paint.

Mammarella, who will be displaying his art at Cabrini during the month of March, was greatly influenced by the American scene artists during the 1930s and '40s.

This group of artists would paint what was interesting during their particular time period. Mammarella chose leisure activities, such as amusement rides and water slides, to paint during the I 990s.

Dr. Adeline Bethany, department chair of fine arts, said she tries to schedule art exhibits with different styles in order to have a variety.

Mammarella has also been influenced by a trip to Italy where he studied Baroque and Renaissance painting.

However, he said he is intersted in different subjects durog different times. At this preent moment, amusements are !le topic of his paintings.
