About The Artist

Erich Handlos, Artist Erich Handlos is an artist: autodidact - sculptor, painter, ceramist and gallerist. He started his artistic life as a child, first using clay and ceramics before progressing to sculptures of wood and metal. During his professional training as a metal engineer he refined his knowledge of materials and processing skills as a sculptor. Eventually he also discovered the love for painting as yet another means of artistic expression. For his works of art Erich Handlos applies a wide range of skills and techniques. Over the course of the years, he created a range of series of paintings made of silicone, acrylic, oil paint, as well as using watercolors and linoleum printing that often merge different techniques and materials in one work of art. Series like ‘Flower Power’, ‘Space’, ‘Mankind and Nature’ or the ‘Animal Series’, but also his series on ‘Women’, ‘Fantastic Worlds’, ‘Motors’ and ‘Sports’, and last but not least his ‘Character Heads’ are just a few examples of the extensive creative work of Erich Handlos. www.atelier-of-fine-arts-artshop.com
