"Gabriel
Picart is a special kind of painter.
It would be enough if he were only a classic realist
with a reverence for the human form, masterful technique and a repertoire
of timeless images of exquisite beauty and grace. The true magic of his
art comes from within, from the profound personal investment he makes in
each and every painting before it leaves his studio."

GABRIEL
PICART |
|
|
Gabriel
Picart was born in Barcelona, Spain, in 1962. He began a successful
art career at the early age of twenty when he started working as an
illustrator throughout Europe, and shortly thereafter for the major
publishing houses and advertising agencies in the United States and
Canada. Since 1996, Picart paints full time and no longer accepts
illustration commissions.
Picart considers himself a realist painter,
working realistically though not photographically. While he has
also become noted for his dimensional facade paintings of Barcelona
and his romantic pictures of Venice, his main love is the human
figure. Picart's paintings are permanently on display at some of the
most recognized galleries in the US, and have attracted special
attention of noteworthy critics and collectors. In
2012,
Gabriel Picart was one
of the
two International
Master
Artist specially
invited by the organizers of
Art Revolution Taipei
in its second edition.
