Surrealism and Mythology in Painting

This collection of oil paintings represents a decade of my artistic journey that captures on canvas the evolution of my creative ideas. Using traditional methods and materials of the old masters like Rembrandt van Rijn and Johannes Vermeer, I paint the surreal world combining existing landscapes with some symbols. My painting style is influenced by John Singer Sargent, Antonio Mancini and Edouard Manet. I have taken the colors from the Impressionists, the sensibilities of beauty from the Greco-Roman era, the hidden meaning from Dali and Magritte and added personal sensibilities to my images. Besides imaginative artwork, the art book also contains sections of landscape and figurative paintings. I hope my contemporary realist artwork will find a home in your heart inspiring you to think and create while reflecting the warmth and beauty of our world.
