Arnold Galavazi

Following years of living in Asia and travelling all over the world, Arnold resettled in the Netherlands. There he rediscovered the beauty of the Dutch landscape, the changing seasons, the meandering rivers under cloudy skies and the light as reflected by the rivers and clouds. His desire is to capture the changing qualities of light and create paintings which transmit his experience of the beauty of nature to the viewer. His paintings often tell a story and invite the viewer to contemplate.

Arnold Galavazi is educated at the Academy of Realistic Painting Art Partout in Deventer where he learned the craft of oil painting the traditional way and mastered the techniques of the Old Masters such as Rembrandt and Vermeer. Subsequently he became a teacher of oil painting techniques at the Academy Art Partout.
