Neo-Impressionist Artists | Sitemap

Neo-Impressionism is a term applied to an avant-garde art movement that flourished principally in France from 1886-1906. Led by the example of Georges Seurat, artists of the Neo-Impressionist circle renounced the random spontaneity of Impressionism in favor of a measured painting technique grounded in science and the study of optics.

Edwin Georgi | Magazine Illustrator

Edwin Georgi (1896-1964) was an American artist born in 1896.

He was best known for his dynamic pin-up illustrations, but surprisingly, based on his talent, he did not initially pursue art as a career.

A leader in the second wave of "pretty-girl" artists: more like pin-ups without actually being pin-ups.

Largely self-taught, learning his way up in ad and art agencies. A pilot in WWI.

Johnny Palacios Hidalgo, 1970 | Surrealist painter

Peruvian painter Johnny Palacios Hidalgo was born in Lima, Peru and studied art between 1988-1998 in the National Art Museum and the National School of Fine Arts.

He has exhibited regularly since 1984, developing a surreal hyperrealism style with unique powerful images full of beauty, which emphasizes the feminine beauty and animal figures more or less merged with the environment.

Ron Di Scenza, 1954 | Figurative impressionist painter

American artist🎨 Ron Di Scenza has a fitting last name. In Italian, conoscenza means knowledge or awareness, and a knowing sense of familiarity comes through Di Scenza's canvases, giving his images special meaning and significance.

Di Scenza's deep understanding of human nature is expressed in the faces and body language of his figures, much like Spanish painter Diego Velazquez🎨 and his ability to report life as it is recalls American painter John Singer Sargent🎨.

Especially exciting, Di Scenza's detailed realism is on par with Flemish painter Johannes Vermeer🎨, while the soulfulness of his subjects brings to mind Italian artist Michelangelo Caravaggio🎨.

Mary Qian, 1973 | Impressionist painter

A Chicago-based fine art painter, Mary is a winner of many awards🎨, including Oil Painters of America gold Medal.

Originally from Shanghai, China, Mary went through the traditional Chinese educational system focusing on the sciences while studying Chinese painting and calligraphy on her own. Before coming to the US, she admired the ancient Chinese painters🎨 but found her true voice for painting when she discovered the western artists.

It was the realism of Rembrandt🎨, Velazquez🎨, Repin🎨 -her particular favorites- that she found to be the artistic style that she had been looking for.
