<— That guy is Robert Rodriquez. The man behind SplashyArt who started painting abstract art 5 years ago.
“Each painting is an emotional discovery based solely on color and mood. Spontaneous reactions with color” says Robert.
His favorite piece is the Red Dragon. “I was visualizing a highway and rehearsed it in my mind, the outcome was different than what I expected, but I was surprised by the result which was unexpected breakthrough.”
Robert is a relatively young artist at 42. His artist inspirations are Van Gogh and Andy Warhol. Van Gogh for his color depth, personal conviction, and struggle. Andy Warhol because he had well executed design, precise in his foresight, and being able to produce so much without agonizing was a victory in that sense. To be able to combine fine art with commercial success is any artist dream.
Robert’s ADVICE TO ARTISTS and THE WEB:
“The web is a great way to get worldwide exposure, but you have to be fast, computer savvy, and determined. Some people don’t understand it. But A LOT OF people do and respect it if you believe in what you do. Having a website is a modern way to reach an audience instantaneously, and we are more connected with that more than ever before. As with most jobs you have to be able to connect with your audience, and prove your namesake.”
