Herman Sillas' art talent was recognized early when he won first prize in a 1947 Los Angeles City Unified School District poster contest. At fifteen, he was accepted at the prestigious Otis Art Institute of Los Angeles. The following year, the Institute awarded him a scholarship. But upon graduating from high school, he placed his art on hold to attend UCLA and pursue a law career.
