Weed Beasts : 18" x 24" : oil on board : Framed : Available for Aqua Art Fair
Chris Buzelli is a New York, based fine artist, (originally from Chicago), who incorporates his childhood memories intertwined with fantastical beasts to set the mood of his pieces. Chris balances scenic backdrops with dynamic characters, conjuring feelings from a bygone era, as he explains, “Somewhere in between this world and one inhabited by gigantic beasts and sea creatures.” Chris’ work compliments the “soul” capturing moments of personal relationships and oddly familiar memories.

Chris shares, “Lately I’ve been working larger then usual. The larger scale allows for more detail and some extra freedom with my brush strokes. Every once in a while I find myslelf in a bit of a creative slump and I find by changing things up just a little really helps. ‘Aging Tyger’ is a painting that deals with my love and fascination of the animal kingdom. It is such a shame that many of the wild animals have, and will disappear during my lifetime.”
