Dante Rondo
Carmel Valley Haystacks - Landscape Painting - Oil On Canvas By Dante Rondo

2018

About the Item

Any novelist battling through writer’s block might be excited to encounter Dante Rondo, whose life has been a collage of free-spirited experiences that would satisfy the most vicarious of dreamers. As he approaches his 70th birthday, Rondo is an artist, a teacher, a surfer, and a globetrotter. His bohemian appetite and artistic instincts have taken him to Hawaii, Fiji, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, French Polynesia, the Cook Islands, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, and Denmark – sometimes for months at a time – but have always brought him back to the Monterey Peninsula to paint and teach. “I think some artists are content to find a formula – a type of art that sells – and do that forever, and I pass no judgment on that: If they’ve found something they love doing that also has commercial appeal, that’s great,” said the artist, who works in oils, acrylics, pastels, and watercolors, specializing in brilliantly colored florals, landscapes, seascapes, figures, and nonobjective abstracts. “But as I approach 70, I still feel like a creative kid in a candy store. I want to try this ... I want to try that ... and I also returned to styles I’ve worked with over the past 30 years or so,” Rondo said. “Maybe I’m finally starting to mature as an artist.” The painting comes with a certificate of authenticity and a letter of appraisal.
