Guido Elias R Contino

Guido Elias R. Contino (23/11/1978), also known by his nickname "Gluckmann", is a Canadian oil painter, sketcher, writer and web developer.
He is the author of circa 50 artworks between oil paintings (some of them on sale here as prints only) and paintings on paper; of three books ("La gare de temps" , "Wasteland. Scorched Earth" and "Enigma, or on the unveiling"), of three websites and of an indefinite number of digital artworks.
He lives and works in Italy.

The author had no formal education in arts and paintings (nor in web development or creative writing for that matter) , but he learned his craft and trade on the field solely, painting and coding from dawn till dusk (sometimes even at night) for two years . In his view constant practice and exercise are the only source of true knowledge and craftsmanship.
