Phil Locascio - Pastel
|
"I have only been painting for three years but began by trying my hand at what I refer to as classical pastel subjects: clouds, sunsets, flowers, waterfalls, etc. I soon found that trying to replicate these images was not my strength. I began letting my imagination loose and moved into doing impressionistic cityscapes. I found that this method was much more to my liking and skill level. Since then I have ventured out into other avenues like celebrity characterizations. I am still trying to find my real self.
Prior to taking to painting, my claim to fame has been as an author. I have written seven books all published by legitimate publishing houses. My books are in the suspense/thriller genre and can be found on Nook, Kindle, and Amazon. My seventh book, The Bane of the Curious, was recently released by World Castle Publishing. My publisher even allowed me to do the artwork for the cover of that book, thus melding my two artistic passions into one." |
