"When I combine the art of architecture with the colors of nature I can infuse sentiments of pride, nostalgia, and love of the places where we live work and play."
Val was an artist at heart all of his life but did not pursue it as a full-time career until about the year 2010. He did not receive any formal training other than a course in perspective drawing which has proved to be helpful in creating his cityscape paintings. His first paintings were of various subjects, but he decided to focus on scenes of Chicago because of his interest in architecture...
... for which Chicago is word renown and it is where he grew up.
To create his paintings Val applies many layers of acrylic paint on canvas which can take up to 250 hours to complete. Val also prints Giclée reproductions. He uses only archival materials to produce prints that can last 100 years before fading might occur.
