From the Artist:

"It is my personal vision to express myself in flat, colorful shapes that catch the viewer's eye in a tasteful yet visually stimulating way. My work is about design and shape in the purist form possible.

[In my Cut-Paper Collage Art] my intent is to create a graphic image with shapes of paper cut out to resemble the scene. I work from photographs to get a likeness of the object in collage format. The little shapes of paper create an illusion of a scene in a graphic way with the subject matter still being easily recognizable.

My painted wooden sculptures are a labor of love from creation to final art. I try to encompass the purist elements of art, design, shape and form in my sculptures.

I hope that people will ultimately accept my view of sculpture for the purity that it resembles, as well as from being created from the heart." Bob De Mario
