Passerby 43 x 37 x 3 cm Oil on panel. Varnished, framed and ready to hang. ‘Passerby’ distils feelings of a fleeting moment when a man passed me in the street and I found something in him I wanted to paint. It’s not so much the visual memory, but the feeling I received that triggered the painting. When I’m doing thick brush stokes, I try to see underneath first. I’m aware of the feeling and often paint in layers with the thick strokes almost like a mask in areas. If each brush stroke is done with feeling and intent, then surely that comes through. Likewise, a smear of colour done with purpose shows through. Painting is beautifully framed, 3 cm deep. stevesalo.com

Steve Salo is an Australian contemporary artist, best known for his emotive portraiture and expressive landscape paintings. His works are in private collections in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong, China, UAE, Ireland, the UK, Europe, USA and Canada. Steve's profile continues to grow, with paintings shortlisted in prestigious prizes across Australia and awarded a prize in Florence, Italy. Artist residencies in Hämeenkyrö Finland and in Portsea Australia. "My paintings speak for me and say a lot more than I ever could put into words. They can depict everything from a moment in time to the weight of the modern world, to contemporary reimagining of works by master painters. I enter the studio and a catharsis takes place, I feel the same when I connect with someone else’s artwork, music or performance. Art has the power to free the mind and connect us to humanity, even if only for a moment."
