About the Item

In this abstract oil painting Dintino evokes images of childhood, and adulthood. In a very nostalgic way, Dintino uses the peaches and warm toned colors to help recall images of stuffed animals in your childhood room. Cuddling up at night, warm under the covers, and feeling safe. In adulthood, he conjures up similar ideas, but perhaps more so cuddling with another human. The peach tones become skin and the warmness of the colors become the warmness of body parts. Dintino's work has to do with the melding of title and piece. His paintings all illustrate his ideas and words through visuality and color. Creating large panoramic pieces makes his work atmospheric and immersive, allowing the viewer to literally feel the title of his painting. This is quite a synesthetic approach to making art and allows ideas and words to sing. Born in San Francisco, California in 1964, Patrick Dintino grew up in Sunnyvale, in the south bay area. He went to college in San Diego earning a BA degree in Industrial Arts from San Diego State University, and co-founded Artists in Motion art collective, a group of artists who created funk-art fashion, sculpture and furniture out of reclaimed materials. He also formed a musical group called 'Naked Earth,' and handled the art direction of Ecodisc Records. He moved back to the Bay Area and earned a Masters in Fine Art degree at the California College of Arts and Crafts (CCA) in San Francisco and Oakland in 2001.

Crusade - red warm toned grey color stripe abstract contemporary oil painting
Located in New York, NY
In this abstract oil painting, Dintino brings about images of bloody battles, or crusades. The red is angry and at some points dark, though he juxtaposes that with a bright and influential light. This light is quite god-like, which makes sense when put in the context of the Crusades. The blurred colors in this piece almost read as 'nostalgic' or historical, that the image of the past is so old that it has blurred with age. Dintino's work has to do with the melding of title and piece. His paintings all illustrate his ideas and words through visuality and color. Creating large panoramic pieces makes his work atmospheric and immersive, allowing the viewer to literally feel the title of his painting.
