Leslie Ditto ~ “Pop Surrealism a la the Old Masters”
“Over the years I researched techniques of the ‘Old Masters” such as Leonardo Da Vinci, Rubens, Raphael, and Rembrandt. I fell in love with the technique of glazing transparent oil color over a neutral colored under painting. With strong influences from fantasy artist, surreal artist, and the “Old Masters”, I create disturbingly beautiful oil paintings that interpret to the viewer my deep emotions that are conceived from my views of current social, political, and religious dynamics. My ideas come to me in an organic fashion. Starting with a seed of a simple idea and growing into many complex symbols and images. My main goal is to capture my audience and bring them to my emotional state in the hopes that my test for an echo will be a success.” ~ Leslie Ditto
“In the work of this cartoonist, illustrator and painter, various ages and tones live together: transgression and tenderness, explicit sex and lyricism, seduction and weirdness, beauty and a little bit of monstrosity, everyday immediacy and fantasy, truth and game, surrealism and pop art”
