The European Art of Stephen Verona
The exchange rate from dollars to Euro makes that trip to France or Italy
a little out of reach this year? Or you just like to have a little bit
of the flavor of Europe at home? Images of European street cafes, corner
meat butcher shops, old men playing Boules in a Paris park, the echoes
of great artists at the Louvre, a lavish bistro of rich woods and Rive
Gauche atmosphere. Why not hang a real gallery and museum quality artwork
window on Europe on your wall rather than that department store poster
from Target.
World
recognized artist Stephen Verona is known for his ability to capture
the life, character and feeling of the people and places he paints
on canvas. His art has been
compared to that of David Hockney and Edward Hopper with a unique use
of color,
light, and the faces of real people
to bring his art to life with a comfortable “wish you were there” warmth.
Stephen Verona’s art hangs in galleries and private collections
around the world and in the homes of Hollywood 
celebrities
like Sylvester Stallone. His original print capturing art world icon
Andy Warhol will
soon be in the collection of the Getty Museum in Los Angeles. A film-maker
as well as artist and photographer, Verona is perhaps best known for
his cut-out paintings of life-sized people, both of and owned by many
well known celebrities, like his famous figures of Ronald and Nancy
Reagan and his mural of “Gone With The Wind”.
Stephen
Verona’s works begin from photographs but painting with
Acrylics creates works of art evoking much deeper and richer emotional
connections to the subjects than any photo-realism could achieve.
While his original acrylic and oil paintings cost thousands of dollars,
the
artist offers prints of his artworks in signed and numbered editions
for a very reasonable price - about $100 for an 8x10 size, available
to the public through his website. For larger size prints or for
an original acrylic piece or photography you can contact him directly
through the
site. Should your interest lie beyond the boundaries of European
subjects his works on other lands around the world may appeal as well. © Bargain
