Artist Statement for Tomatz Tomatz
|
|
|
Tomatz was born in 1970 in Corpus Christi Texas. After moving several times, his family finally settled in the small rural town of Culpepper, Virginia. There is where Tomatz spent his formative years enjoying the beauty and rawness of the land. Soon this passion started to emerge through rough sketches of the landscape and drawings experimenting with bold colors and canvas. Tomatz' artistic talents were further enhanced in school by several courses concentrating on art history, sketching, and painting.
In college, his interests continued to diversify by studying still life and anatomy. Graduating from college brought a new direction and experiences to the artist’s life due to his relocation to South Florida. Known for its ethnic richness and cultural diversity, South Florida provided Tomatz with the inspiration he was longing to express through his art. Tomatz’s vibrant personality can be felt and experienced when viewing his pieces. He uses daring colors and dramatic textures to show his love of diverse culture, travel, and exotic environments. Tomatz’s life when viewed through a microscope reveals a perfect duality. During the day, Tomatz works in an exciting business career life utilizing his precise technical skills while feeding his creative soul at night through painting.
Tomatz’ works are full of color and captivating textures. His distinctive style blends together eclectic elements such as sugar, salt for texture, fire, and mesmerizing colors to reveal the emotion. Unusually abstract yet striking depictions of his life, people, and experiences reveal how influential his travels have been on his painting. You can experience impressions from Europe, Mexico, the Caribbean, and South America in his works. Tomatz humbly acquires a great sense of pleasure knowing that his art can afford enjoyment to others while stimulating the senses.
