What a great Salon it was! The 30 th in Salon history. I recently came back home and almost over jet lag after flying overseas. I am posting one of the photos right now – of me with my exhibition painting and demonstration which I painted live during 4 days of Salon. The theme of that Salon was “Light of eternal city” light of Rome.
To me art, sculptures, architecture creates Light in the city and light in the spirit of people. My inspiration for that painting was one of the statues of my favorite Italian sculptor – Bernini.
I will go through my hundreds of photos and will post later.
I am happy to learn that my painting-self portrait was accepted for upcoming exhibition “All Walks of Life” at Herrig Center for the Arts, new gallery in Bradenton. Packing it.
I am trully honored to exhibit at International Salon 2026 Art show in Rome, Italy. Its coming soon : May 28-31, and I still I am still working on details of my exhibition painting- posting below a little video of 2 inches detail. A little part of my new almost 5 feet high painting.
Venue of this exhibition will be at The Basilica of San Pietro in Vincoli (Saint Peter in Chains) in Rome is a 5th-century minor basilica on the Oppian Hill, best known for housing the chains that bound St. Peter in Jerusalem, along with Michelangelo’s famous statue of Moses. Located near the Colosseum, this historic site features a reliquary under the main altar with the chains.
I’ve being busy working on my new big painting for upcoming Salon exhibition in Rome. But had to stop for a while – because of the windows replacement job being done. Well, I could not put my brushes down completely. So I painted that small portrait for our dear friend for many years who recently visited Florida.
