Rino Gonzalez (b. 1962)
With his extraordinary eye for detail, sense of exquisite style and love of storytelling, fine artist Rino Gonzalez has amassed a great following. Many around the world admire the artist's skill for creating such striking realism. "I try to put my subjects on canvas as realistically and as detailed as possible. However, I make sure I leave something for the viewer's imagination," the artist states.
Like his father and mentor Lex Gonzalez, Rino also grew up in an artistic environment and knew even at a very young age that he wanted to become a fine artist. Under the latter's tutelage, the young Gonzalez learned the traditional method of painting and spent his early years perfecting his pencil drawing and composition before he actually commenced the use of oil colors. As his father and mentor stressed, "A true artist must first learn how to draw proficiently. Only then will the application of oil colors, on canvas, or any surface for that matter, come with ease and grace."
Art connoisseurs and collectors were quick to notice the artist's works. His much sought after oil paintings are usually acquired even before completion. In addition, he has been commissioned to produce numerous paintings for art collectors both nationally and abroad. Romance, combined with his eye for detail, allows his work to tell a story with a true emotion that has entranced numerous admirers around the world.
Robert Paul Galleries is proud to bring the works of Rino Gonzalez to the American collector.
