“Samson And Delilah”, 2008 oil on linen by Michael...

As words are to human thoughts...Paintings are to human visions. In my loose definition of paintings we include also work in pigments, pencil, pastels, excrement, etc.. As long as there is as little influence of mechanical means as possible. We will try to be as objective as possible without the overly subjective judgements of critical thought...which, in general prevents us from seeing what is really there and understanding how the visual can expand our conscience undertanding of the whole.

“Samson And Delilah”, 2008 oil on linen by Michael Aviano

To love and to be loved…the viewer brings to this image desires and wants of their own. But the artist’s original intent may be quite different…maybe bringing into the mix their own interpretations of intrigue and betrayal. Possibly every one’s perception of what is going on is correct and with each viewing a new piece emerges. Maybe the true avocation of any artistic endeavor is to never stop creating.
