近来微博传播一组图片,说是“美国画家”Nathan Walsh的作品。根据我的考证,是Nathan Walsh画的没错,但不是美国画家,而是英国画家,当代英国现实主义画家。在其官网上,大标题也是“Nathan Walsh, Contemporary British Realist Painter”。为什么会有人搞错了呢,因为确实有一位美国画家也叫Nathan Walsh。于是乎有人搞错了。

Biography
Since a young age, my imagination has inspired me to create art that is aesthetically appealing as well as meaningful to me and those around me. Building on this foundation, I further grew as an artist studying at the University of Minnesota where my work was recognized through scholarships and awards. My academic work consisted of mostly realistic/figurative paintings with interlaced with dark or humorous social commentary. Since graduation, graphic design has been my occupation but I continue to put much of my energy into painting, hoping to make a career doing what I love most.
Artist Statement
I feel that I am an artist with broad range. Over the years I have employed my drawing and painting skills to create a diverse body of work that demonstrates a flexibility of style as well as technical control. My paintings vary from photo-realisms to bold landscapes to strange surrealisms. I have been told that I have a flare for turning the mundane into something unique and thought-provoking. Currently I have been focusing on allowing my own signature style to come through my work naturally. It is my goal to create paintings that will be recognized as "Nathan Walsh originals."
Education
Bachelor of Science, Universtiy of Minnesota Minneapolis, MN United States 2000
