Arthur Vitello's work has been described as the quintessence of traditional art with a contemporary flair. The sincerity and simplicity of his compositions are brought to life by the exquisite texture he is able to achieve by overlapping many layers of paint. His texture is created by initially using acrylic, and then using multiple layers of oil. He is able to create color fields so rich in texture as to make the viewer feel engulfed in his work as a part of the piece.
He received a BFA from Paier College of Art in Connecticut and the grad program at Yale University School of Drama. Arthur has also painted for the Goodspeed Opera in Connecticut, JFK Center in Washington D.C., Glimmerglass Opera in NY, and the Utah Shakespearean Festival. Click here for other pictures.
