Self-taught from a very early age, TonyT's art seeks to find the magic in everyday life. It seeks to showcase luscious color and luminous natural light whether it be a landscape or still life. His images defy the conventions of normal mundane settings. The subject matter and formal concerns of color, light, and frame have always been the devices used to get to the captured spirit of the moment. "I want my art to be a jolt!”

Color and texture in a variety of forms create an intense experience to enhance the vibrancy of the senses of memory and feelings.

Employing the traditional academic genres of art to explore the nature and place of life settings, Tony's series includes landscape views and still lifes that represent the state-of-the-art as well as the passing of time. In each genre, his richly realized depictions balance the affection and admiration of his subjects with precise and unsentimental observation.

"I hope you enjoy my interpretations." -- TonyT
