A technique that utilizes circles as a method of applying paint or any medium that one uses. The circles bring out the subject or it can also camouflage the subject. It depends on the viewer's point of view. See www.circlism.com Painting in the method of Circlism which was first discovered by me in 1985. It was used in 1996 in sketches that I made and finally in 2000 was used with oils on masonite.

The Unveiling of my 30th Circlism Painting!






A Moment in Time  

My 30th painting in the size of 4 feet by 4feet on masonite in oils.  

Entitled: A Moment in Time.

          John F. Kennedy definitively encapsulated a moment in history which would help to define an entire generation.  His words were not only meant to inspire,  but to catapult our energies and ingenuity to strive for more!                                                                                                                                                           
           In Kennedy's own words: ..............."We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things,  not because they are easy but because they are hard because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills,  because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept,  one we are unwilling to postpone and one which we intend to win,  and the others,  too."

The circlism technique increased their eye-catchiness.


             The Story of Circlism by : Edward C. Stresino



     I enjoyed seeing pictures of the 

beautiful, intricate paintings. 

The pictures are detailed and fanciful. 

The circlism technique increased their eye-

catchiness. Also, the funny, engaging writing 

style in the included short 

stories makes them a fun read!

A glimpse into the creative mind of Edward C. Stresino

             


        The Story of Circlism is an extraordinary book and a glimpse into the creative mind of Edward C. Stresino. He takes the reader on a journey that is both autobiographical and fantastical. 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.
          Through The Story of Questor and The Frog and the Scorpion Stresino adds a written dimension to his brilliant art. I highly recommend this book to readers of all ages. It will inspire readers because Stresino encourages us all to honor our creativity while integrating different curriculum or while simply experiencing life! Incredible!!!

The Story of Circlism introduces the World to the Visual Art of Edward C. Stresino for the 21st Century and Beyond!

                    Renteria  Reviews:                         








Title Information : The Story of Circlism

Author:   Stresino, Edward C.

$24.99 hardcover, $18.99 paperback

ISBN:978-1-46918-529-3;

Published: March 30, 2012

Book Review:


     Stresino's origin story for Circlism is an inspiration for all artists to utilize and implement this very innovative technique. Stresino's influences of Van Gogh, Monet, Kandisky, and Picasso can clearly be seen in his artwork.  Stresino's very art like those before him, will help to define Visual Art for the 21st century and beyond!  
      The Story of Questor is an added bonus that gives the reader insight into the Artist's mind, and happens to create and envision a world beyond one's own very imagination for his pieces': Questor, Warrior Princess, and Questor's Labyrinth.
    As a result The Story of Circlism is a special treat for all readers and Connoisseur's of Art.  The Author and Artist Stresino has simultaneously created an Art book, a graphic novel, and has reimagined the fable: The Frog and The Scorpion.  Where else could one be inspired, informed, and entertained all at once?

Kirkus Review of The Story of Circlism

                                                               
                              



Title Information :

The Story of Circlism

Stresino, Edward C.

$24.99 hardcover, $18.99 paperback

ISBN:978-1-46918-529-3; Published: March 30, 2012


Book Review:

      Visual artist Edward C. Stresino, in his debut, describes the origins of his artistic technique with examples and stories.
      In 1985, the author, while taking a high school biology class, became extremely focused on the concept of mitosis, a form of cell division that splits a cell in two, dividing its chromosomes into two identical sets. 
     This inspired him to begin creating drawings composed of tiny circles. His paintings dominate the pages of this book and provide readers with vivid examples of his technique, which he calls “Circlism.”
