Sergon - Bird of Paradise Art Print
Sergon Art Expo '82 Bird of Paradise Tribute Art Print. Sergon (b.1945) grew up surrounded by the diverse cultural influences of China, Japan, and South East Asia. After winning first place in a nationwide painting competition, he was admitted as scholar to the University of the Philippines College of Fine Arts and later went on further studies at the Scudia Lorenzo de Medici in Florence, Italy. Sergon was born in Manila and is noted for his paintings of brilliant still lifes and lush gardens. His highly prized canvases of Japanese Koi fish and lovely, mysterious women garbed in richly colored Japanese kimonos give one an insight into his skills as an artist. The paintings are realistic in form and detail, and yet there is an impressionistic aura surrounding each piece. It is the blend of technical ability and specific subject matter, which creates a work revealing the life within the image. 34 x 28. $60
