Joey Brushstrokes
aka. Joseph Iantorno – Los Angeles, California, United States
Joey is currently focused on Tiki/Tropical/Traditional Cocktail Paintings which he executes in a classical-contemporary style reminiscent of the Baroque-era Dutch painters, where dramatic contrasts of light and shadow take center stage in deftly designed compositions. Joey, who lives in California, recently moved into a studio with north light, which is helping him refine this approach further. "I can see the luminosity of my still-life objects much more clearly," he says. "I can also discern more detail on my canvas, which is important because every brush stroke matters in a beautiful work of art."
