Francis Picabia | Dada / Surrealist painter

Francis Picabia (born Francis-Marie Martinez de Picabia, 22 January 1879 - 30 November 1953) was a French avant-garde painter, poet and typographist. After experimenting with Impressionism and Pointillism, Picabia became associated with Cubism.

His highly abstract planar compositions were colourful and rich in contrasts.

He was one of the early major figures of the Dada movement in the United States and in France. He was later briefly associated with Surrealism, but would soon turn his back on the art establishment.

Since 1978, lives and works in Mirabel-aux-Baronnies in Provence (France).

Brian Tull, 1975 | Pop Art / Photorealism painter

Brian Tull describes his work by saying: “Born in 1975, the only option I have to remember the 1930’s through ‘50’s, is through my imagination. I let my mind visit the people, their era, stories and photographs, then I translate my own narrative through painting".

Headlights on a two-lane highway, sun rays through trees, trains on a rainy night. They come from small towns and large towns. I see paintings in folk songs from the ‘30’s, passersby on the streets, and in the gospel the preacher talked about on Sunday morning. Ideas for my paintings come from the past and present, from all things nostalgic.

John Silver, 1959 | Figurative painter

British painter🎨 John Silver was born in Macclesfield Cheshire. UK.

- I am a professional artist and am known worldwide for my Canine artwork.

Though I also paint many other subjects such as figuratives, fantasy, equestrian and landscapes. I have over 100 limited edition prints published by the major publishers over the last 14 years or so and also many self published prints.

I am self taught and I knew I wanted to be an artist by the age of five years old!

My work is now seen as an 'investment' by collectors. Which is something that I am very proud of and humbled by.
