Tathagata: Contemporary Mixed Media Buddha Painting by Sax Berlin
By Sax Berlin
Located in Brecon, Powys
Tathagata - a Pali or Sanscrit word used primarily by Siddartha Gautama Buddha to refer to himself. However it also the term for one who has reached enlightenment through Buddhist principles & has as many as eight different meanings. Generally accepted is the translation one who has thus arrived. And this vivid painting from Berlin has arrived! Drawing on his knowledge of the faith & his research into the theme this is a beautiful & informed rendition of Buddha. The colours are vibrant but enable one to look deep and take the essence of tranquility from the image. This Buddha would sit happily on an altar or a home corner of peace and tranquility, giving an essence of calm & preparedness to those who stand before it.

Redolent of Picasso's work Black Skull and Jug (1946) or the work of Belgian Expressionist...

Angel Of Liberty. Contemporary Neo Expressionist Painting
By Sax Berlin
Located in Brecon, Powys
Angel Of Liberty from Sax Berlin's "Sharp Edge 21st Century Neo Expressionist New York City Style" Series
It probably only happens once in a lifetime with right alignment of the stars! To work with an artist at the very zenith of his power in the contemporary art world. Sax Berlin has travelled every continent to study to learn how to paint in a myriad complexity of styles. He has served an apprenticeship of decades, always creating the most wonderful paintings in every unique style. Now he has come full circle and his Sharp Edge 21st Century New York City Style reflects the cutting edge of contemporary art.
Now painting in a studio in Spain his work has evolved. Spanish art has always been at the forefront of creativity and style. Due in part to the influences of light, colour and landscape that imbue the country, from stark arid plains to verdant mountains.
Berlin is inspired by the colours and light to a new vibrancy. His paintings are elemental, "slash and burn" in an amalgam of New York City Street Style and ancient Spanish...
