Sharon Okun Figurative Paintings

Canadian
Sharon Okun was born in 1976 in Toronto, Canada. At the age of 19 she traveled to Florence, Italy, where she studied Art History while assisting in an Art restoration workshop. In Italy she studied classical painting techniques derived from the realist ateliers of the 17th -19th centuries and found representation in Galleries in the U.K, France, America and Canada. In 2012 Sharon moved her studio practice back to Canada where she is focused on completing commissioned work for private clients and collectors. Her current studio that she shares with her husband Adam Markovic (also an accomplished artist) is in a small village of Queenston in Niagara on the the Lake.

Afternoon - 21st Century Contemporary Oil Painting by Dutch Marten Huitsing
By Marten Huitsing
Located in Nuenen, Noord Brabant
The paintings of this artist have been part of the collection of Galerie Bonnard since his graduation (2010) at the Classical Academy of Groningen. Huitsing has quickly become successful, his style, craftsmanship and choice of subject appeals to many people. Yet Marten, he says, does not want to repeat himself.

The sympathetic artist got national fame because he beautifully portrayed a famous Dutch TV presentator Mart Smeets in the 'Paint the stars' program. Honest, very recognizable and with a narrative painting. Mart Smeets was overwhelmed, praising his comments. Rightly so! From that moment. Marten Huitsing...
