This piece was painted with Inks and a special process on cotton canvas. It can be stretched or displayed under glass as is.
"I pioneered a unique method where I paint by hand directly into different types of blank photo papers (and canvas too), using water, color inks and some other unconventional household chemicals to create reactions that are instantly register in the paper. The result is a painting with so much sharpness, tonal graduations and depth of field that it cannot be duplicated by the human hand."
Jose Tonito was born in Havana, Cuba and lived most of his life in the United States. He graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts from Florida International University. Although he was educated as a photographer, his interest was leaning toward painting which is now his main focus. He has pioneered a special technic and has become the master and his work is especially prized not only with discerning art collectors but also with collectors of fine photography.
