Painting with Images

Chicago artist David Loew has earned a reputation both as an accomplished painter and photographer.

As a fine artist he has exhibited in numerous group and one-man shows in both the United States and Europe, where he lived for several years. His most recent influence is China where he spent a month last summer, soon to return for a longer stay.

“Combining natural media and photographic imagery in a digital environment allows me the freedom to work with a wide range of images and textures both real and dreamlike.”

I have been influenced as much by film and Television as I have by other painters.  I grew up with the Twilight Zone. Blade Runner and the gothic, endless night of Dark City have become part of my dystopic worldview.  As far as painters, there are the lonely interiors of  Edward Hopper, the inchoate cities of Reginald Marsh,  and surreal worlds of Magritte, Bosch and Bruegel.

This series of work is available as Giclée prints created from digital files, with archival inks on acid free archival paper, available in custom sizes and signed by the artist.
