Yes! He's back! Wayne Salvatore, after the 3 year contemplative period roars back with a stylistic more painterly direction. His compositions have always been polished and superb. No change there. But the new direction is fierce in it's character as it challenges the viewer to put aside "pretty" and visually deal with an "in your face" painterly "texturalism" that is new and is unapologetic in confronting the viewer's level of sophistication. This new style is not for "sissies". The casual observer will miss Mr. Salvatore's magic if they cannot stand firm in their contemplation of the mastery before them. Slow down and savor these. Challenge yourself to bring your mind to bear on the basic elements of what characterizes a work of art. We can admire Wayne's courage as he goes right up to the edge of "mud" and then stops as if on the edge of a precipice. Another stroke and all could be lost. This is just part of Mr. Salvatore's genius and steely resolve to push the limits of himself and the Art world. Welcome back Wayne. Craig Starr 30x40" 2010 acrylic on canvas
