of  Circlism!

The 30th Anniversary of the origin and invention of Circlism by Artist: Edward C. Stresino

                     Circlism in its infant stages was an idea that originated from a film during a Biology high-school class involving the process of cell division introducing the topic of mitosis and meiosis.  Mitosis is the process of cell division where the chromosomes in the nucleus of the parent cell duplicate and divide in two identical sets.  This in itself was an inspiration alone to start drawing circles and dividing them.  

                        

Meiosis

Mitosis & Meiosis

     Fast Forward thirty years later:  50 works and Thirty of the works are large 4 feet by 4 feet Masonite boards with what is a dazzling array of oil paintings that touch the human experience with portrayals of fantasy,  reality, and life changing moments.  The works are portrayals of history, space, biology, nature, spiritual and even the inner reaches of my own imagination!

Encouraged by the love and devotion of his 


father  

Edward C. Stresino  

pursued his interest in art to develop Circlism.  


He 

discovered this technique integrating his 


fascination of science 

and 

art.  I love all the subjects on his art because they 


depict 

universal 

concepts of nature and philosophical themes of 


ontology. His use 

of bold colors bring his creations to life and 


evokes powerful 

emotions.
