ART, FILM, PRODUCTION & CREATIVE PROFESSIONALS WHO INSPIRE ME

SALVADOR DALI
The man whose works practically initiated me into SURREALISM!...as far back as 1995.
Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dalíwas a prominent Spanish surrealist painter born in Figueres, Spain. Dalí was a skilled draftsman, best known for the striking and bizarre images in his surrealist work. His painterly skills are often attributed to the influence of Renaissance masters.His best-known work, The Persistence of Memory, was completed in 1931. Dalí's expansive artistic repertoire included film, sculpture, and photography, in collaboration with a range of artists in a variety of media. Dalí was highly imaginative, and also enjoyed indulging in unusual and grandiose behavior. His eccentric manner and attention-grabbing public actions sometimes drew more attention than his artwork, to the dismay of those who held his work in high esteem, and to the irritation of his critics.

EL-DRAGG LEONARD OKWOJU
Arguably the BEST Painter I have met face to face. A master in Color perception, composition and fore-shortening and also an ardent illustrator.
Dragg paints images with vibrancy and motion that almost jump off the canvas. Standing in front of El-Dragg's painting might just avail you of your first hypnotics in a surreal sphere of total "awe" at the mental perception of fantasy and utmost enchantment! Also, HE WAS MY LECTURER in the University of Benin in Life Drawing, Life Painting as well as Imaginative composition. He still Lectures in UNIBEN. He might not know this - but he has been quite instructive in my perception of lights and temperance when it comes to MOOD & TONAL RENDITION in my work as a DP (Director of Photography) in the Movie Industry! |
