During the months of September and October, Village Hall will be showcasing the work of Piotr Antonow. His artist statement is as follows:
“I am a realist painter and paint what I see. My inspiration stems from the studies of studio models and personal photographs. I don’t invent lines, shapes, or form, but alter the reality by using layered colors and vanishing 3-D shapes. Using enhanced color detail in telling the story of each image, I present a more realistic portrait. The story within each painting emerges from the shifting forms and multiple layers of paint. Although the process appears chaotic and abstract, the resulting images are realistic and not invented.”
