Named one of the first Living Masters™ by the Art Renewal Center
ARC Living Master ™ - The artist has dedicated themselves to becoming a realist artist with the wish to express our shared humanity through the visual arts, has shown competence and understanding in all of the basic building blocks of great art, these being for a painter: accurate drawing, compositional sensibilities, effective use of lighting, the technical ability to use modeling, glazing/scrumbling, perspective, tone, hue and successful emotional expression. In addition, an ARC Living Master ™ has created fully professional works of art, as well as some identifiable masterpieces. Beyond that, they have created a body of work which demonstrates accomplished facility in their craft that compares to the masters of prior centuries. Their work demonstrates strong, reliable, poetic sensibilities which intertwine great universal subjects, powerful original compositions and mastery over all aspects of the craft, working seamlessly to enhance the chosen subject. They repeatedly are able to “suspend disbelief” in the viewer eliciting empathy which is rooted in our shared humanity.
Charter Member of the International Guild of Realism
The International Guild of Realism was founded by a group of leading professional realism artists from around the globe in 2002 with four goals:
- Recognizing the best realists working today
- Creating exhibition opportunities
- Providing technical and promotional support
- To offer a bridge between art collectors and the highest quality realist art, created by our members
It’s all based upon the proven belief that the more art lovers of the world have access to high-quality realism, the greater the value these paintings will have. Value not just in monetary terms, but in appreciation, understanding and international attention.
For art collectors, we create juried exhibitions in museums and galleries that span as many aspects of realism as possible so that they can see the panorama of international work in this field in one show. For museums, we curate themed exhibitions that provide a snapshot of where realism is today. For fellow artists, we provide information about workshops conducted by members and magazine features about realism techniques so that the quality of the art form continues to improve around the world.
