Ray Brandolino

Artist Statement:

Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario.
As a painter my work is constantly evolving and I enjoy both realistic and abstract art. Whether ?I use acrylic, oil or other paint mediums, I like the idea of preserving a small piece of time through my art. For me the process of painting - the strategy of how to approach each piece of work - is the most enjoyable and challenging part of the experience.

Education:

Humber College of Applied Arts & Technology - Advertising & Graphic Design
as well as extended personal studies in fine art at Ontario College of Art.
