I’m not gonna say a lot about Romanian artist Roman Tolici’s work, because it speaks for itself. I was drawn to his In Exitus works, because they’re visually arresting, and I do love a good skull. But the rest of his arsenal is equally good. It’s nice to see some classical painting again. I spend so much time looking at low brow and such that I forget how much traditional styles can do. Roman’s got some great composition and shows a damn strong mastery of his medium. Some of his stuff is a little more on the morbid side than I usually like, but it doesn’t seem to be in it for the horror value. I can appreciate that. I certainly can appreciate that.
