Canadian Artist Eamon Mac Mahon at Eye Buy Art in Toronto

New Images By Canadian Artist Eamon Mac Mahon

Welcome art collectors into this new decade brimming with optimism. The air is a-sparkle with goodness and to celebrate we bring you our next artist Canadian Eamon Mac Mahon, whose work is the visual counterpart to this optimistic new decade and a perfect way to breathe light into your January.

Dare we say, these images remind us of one of the most famous living artists of all time, Gerhard Richter, who paints from the photographs he has taken. We think Eamon does the reverse, painting these images using his camera. They are universal and hard to place in any particular period of time, somehow capturing a gesture of nature that is both quiet and powerful. Such is the mystery of this wonderful world we live in.

Also, make sure to check out EYE BUY ARTist Mark Kasumovic's solo exhibition at Toronto Image Works Gallery until January 30th. What NOW Magazine lists as "a must-see show" for 2010!
