Hestur Painting

I often refer to my “BC” (Before Children) years when discussing my work. Those years in the professional arena I discovered inspiration through travels, produced for exhibitions, and prioritized cultivating my painterly skillset. Creating BC was methodical and focused. My painting style is transforming in parallel to how life itself has been redefined. I’m marking this present time as “AD” (Anni di Dedizione); dedicated to creating with my loves, my daughter and son. Efforts of returning to the studio have forced me to examine how I paint. Ultimately my goal is to create. I’m creating because I must. The act of painting is a refreshment to my state of being. When I do I want it to be a beautiful reflection of the world around me. I’m constantly observing how the art world has transformed and assessing my place in it.
