Tom McKinley Art

American, b. 1955
Born in Bay City, Michigan, Tom McKinley was educated in both Europe and the United States. Beginning at the Goddard Collage in Vermont, he continued his education overseas in England at the Falmouth School of Art, the Ravensbourne College of Art, London, and Brighton Polytechnic. Currently, McKinley is living and working in the San Francisco area. Many of Tom McKinley's new paintings depict quiet, still, uninhabited spaces. Most of these spaces belong in the interior of someone's home yet they bare no trace of human contact or individuation. An edge of a billiard table, a corner of a pool, a section of a veranda; these spaces are beautiful and unexpected architectural experiences. A rhythm of geometry, pattern, and repeating forms permeate these quiet settings. Light from peripheral windows breathes some life into these otherwise inanimate spaces. McKinley paints in a meticulously photorealist style which further heightens the surreal nature of these images.

"Sea", Oleg Turchin, Oil on Canvas, 30x47, Photorealism Original Oil Seascape
By Oleg Turchin
Located in Dallas, TX
Oleg Turchin's "Sea" is an oil on canvas that measures 30" x 47". The painting is a beautiful photorealistic seascape of the blue and white ocean waves crashing in on a brown sandy beach on a stormy day. The artist's attention to detail, perspective, and refinement of the scene brings together a painting true to the scenery. The painting is not stretched at the moment but can be stretched and shipped within 3 days. Blending photorealism and surrealism, Oleg achieves a signature style of his own. The beauty of nature bursts off the canvas with vibrant life. Oleg Turchin is a Moldovan artist, born in 1964. He studied at the Sciusev children’s art...
