ABOUT ME
Jon Robert Petro
I am a Contemporary artist with an interest in where painting/art and technology intersect. Most of the time I paint, but sometimes I write about painting as well. Always in pursuit of the most honest and pure art, I can paint or see. I wish that I could explain my infatuation with paint or making art with words, but they never seem to be good enough.
My art business has been designated as a "Trusted Art Seller" with The Art Storefronts Organization, which means you can shop with confidence, and know that I stand behind the quality and value of my products.
Inspiration
I am forever connected to the Neo-Expressionism Movement of art in the late 70’s early 80’s. It was the moment I came of age as an artists. Intense colors, roughly handled materials and desire to express ones emotions are all devices I use in my work.
Techniques
I use a variety of techniques.
