Leonardo Da Vinci
(drawing by Edward Longo)

Coincidentally, Longo had sketched this drawing of Leonardo Da Vinci during March 1990 - exactly eighteen years from whence it was signed. Although the drawing was sketched onto a paper napkin in pencil and red ink it remains intact and as vividly clear as the day it was created.

ARTIST’S INFO: Edward Longo's paintings are combinations of spontaneous inspiration, emotional freedom and daring color explorations. Longo describes the creative process as "the art of transferring one's feelings from the palette onto the canvas." Early life on the East Coast brought Longo in contact with the verdant countryside and oceans, inasmuch as brine rolling foam and lusty breezes became ingrained within the confines of a truly sensitive spirit. With bold colors and painterly brushstrokes, Longo's work possesses a passionate flair, even in his most serene compositions.

Edward Longo’s work displays the attention to intense colors and geometric shapes of Abstract Expressionism, while exuding the Romanticism and the brushwork of Impressionism. Concentrating on drawing, sculpting and painting during the past twenty years he has exhibited his work in prominent Manhattan galleries, hotels, and public spaces. The artist currently lives and works in New York City.

THE ARTIST PRESENTING HIMSELF ON VIDEO TAPE: Angel Feathers Within Wings was completed on February 12 2008. This painting on stretched canvas is the 6th of the Cement and Acrylics series to date. The painting stands out from others in the series in that it has a way of compelling the viewer to touch its wispy angel feathers. Through a complex series of cement applied to canvas in winding rib-like curves, and strips of acrylic representing feathers, the artist feels he has made an important connection between the angel feathers and its wing. Look for more of this series, with at least a dozen more paintings to follow. NOTE: The Angel Feather Series has been accepted by a prominant gallery in New York City. . .

MAGIC LAMP of Love and Prosperity ------------
The Magic of Love and Prosperity brought together through a painting called MAGIC LAMP Magic Lamp of Love and Prosperity was created during the last week of November 2007. Stretched on linen canvas within a wood frame this is another of the "Acrylic on Cement" series. Many will wonder how the elements of love and prosperity can possibly be accessed through magic, especially combined. Well, the answer has been formulated for us over 2000 years ago through the scriptures, and then professed over and over again by musicians such as the Beatles' "All You Need Is Love," and Yanny's most notable song "Love Is All." What all this love translates to is that in emulating love . . . ...

SCENT OF AN ORCHID ON DISPLAY AT THE ARTISTS ART STUDIO GALLERY ABOUT THE ARTIST AND HIS ART STUDIO GALLERY: For certain, this artist cannot be pigeonholed - that is to say, each of his artworks, whether they be paintings, drawings, or sculptures are in a class of their own. Whether the images are landscapes, visual impressions, or figments of the imagination they are highly influenced by the spiritual realm. Ultimately, each painting becomes manifest, subconsciously, without ever having a particular theme, or specific image in mind. This is what Edward Longo has said about his unusual creative process: "In essence, each and every painting has been painstakingly processed, spiritually, as I am certain those talented artists who have passed must have experienced. This mysterious connection actually felt as if it was being transmitted through my own hand - each piece becoming developed through a different attitude. At times, while in the creative zone, it was .......................................................... AU NATURAL SITTING BY THE WINDOW AU NATURAL is a manifestation of this artist's imagination. The acrylic painting is of a naked, full-busted torso of a woman seated by a window. Her beautiful body is accented by shades of colorful hues. This canvas painting created during 1990 is exquisitely framed in glass with actual gold gold-leafs enhancing its thick gilded wooden frame. The wide, matted border enriches the acrylic, especially with the fine bead of gold trim seperating the mat from the painting. A handsome certificate may be provided as per the National Fine Arts Title Registration at no additional cost. ................

ALBERT EINSTEIN - One of the Rarest Images of This Renowned Psysicist. Albert Einstein Master Physicist: This Unusual drawing was sketched in pencil onto a sheet from a yellow pad. This drawing must be one of the rarest hand-drawn images of the famous physicist. Although sketched in 1991 this image has not been seen, released, or exhibited anywhere until it was submitted at absolutearts.com this month of February 2008. What was interesting about Einstein is that he indicated that he believed in life as a continuing energy that never dies. Regarding the death of his friend Michele Besso he said, That means nothing - For us believing physicists, the distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubborn illusion..................
GENESIS - In The Beginning, GOD Created The Heavens and The Earth GENESIS: The PAINTING & The SEVEN DAYS of CREATION. This acrylic painting was created on a fiber board panel. Naturally, the religious theme was taken from the bible, and represents the creation of our planet earth. In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. . . And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let..........................

JACKSON'S REDEMPTION - The Paintings Fascinating Story Jackson's Redemption: The title came out of my premonition that Michael would win the legal case against him. It was something I just knew would happen, and so, I came up with the title long before the decision was made in his favor. The impetus for this current work began long after I corrected the eye only to discover I had created this painting of Michael Jackson - in fact it had been eleven years. All along I had kept wondering why I had the subject holding that odd-looking tree branch. When I finally managed to get away for a vacation in Miami, Flordia I found the answer................
ROW OF CYPRESS: How The Fauves influenced this Expressionistic Painting ROW OF CYPRESS: Painted in oil by Edward Longo - this master painting on canvas was inspired by an exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum called The FAUVE. The Fauve was a group of artists consisting of three main groups, each with a different background, which contributed to the rise of Fauvism as follows: 1 - The ex-students of Gustave Moreau and the Academie Carriere: These early practitioners included Henri Matisse and Albert Marquet. 2 - The wildest of the wild beasts: These were Andre Derain and Maurice Vlaminck. 3 - The late-comers with impressionist backgrounds: These were Georges Braque, Raoul Dufy, and Othon Friesz. In addition, there were several............ THE HOLY GHOST and SPIRITS of The Supernatural Realm ------The Holy Ghost and Spirits of The Supernatural Realm: This acrylic painting on wood panel is the enlarged version of the miniature painting that was created on brown paper which was submitted on November 3rd. These images were painted on a wood panel 24 inches square that was primed with a rare, Ralph Lauren gold paint. Next, the images were painstakingly drawn using pencil and then painted in using four different acrylic colors. The only tool used in duplicated the images was the artist's trained eye.

The image in white represents The Holy Ghost, while the other images represent the spirits of the supernatural realm. The spirits include God The Father, Mary The Mother, and the infant Jesus Christ.

Elixir of Love: In honor of the great Luciano Pavarotti ELIXIR OF LOVE: In memory of Luciano Pavarotti, who died on September 6, 2007, and the encore performance of one of his most treasured roles, Nemorino in Donizetti's L'Elisir D'Amore (The Elixir of Love). The two-and-one-half-hour, two-act opera was originally broadcast on PBS stations from the stage of the Metropolitan Opera in New York City on March 2, 1981.
