Un attrait prononcé pour les goûters des son enfance baignée de Comics et de sucreries, voici les impressionnantes peintures à l’huile (no photoshop) de l’artiste Doug Bloodworth. Cet artiste spécialiste du rendu photoréaliste réalise aussi des fresques et est régulièrement exposé. Un reportage vidéo dans la suite.
Doug Bloodworth enjoys evoking the viewer’s nostalgic feelings of one’s childhood, be that in comic books, games we played, or our comfort foods.
In 1974 Doug earned a degree in Commercial Arts and went on during the early stages of his career to work in several genres of the art world. From painting caricatures to billboards, Doug’s pursuits steered him towards the mastery of fine art techniques and a working mentorship with Marv Gunderson, the exclusive artist for the Marlboro brand. Painting iconic works on billboards all over the country was a highlight early on in his career and he still draws from the inspiration and lessons learned during the tour.
Doug has since been commissioned to paint two 30’ x 200’ murals at Tampa’s Tropicana Field, a project which took six months to complete and inspired him to focus solely on painting fine art pièces.
