Marcus Von May
Born in 1970, interested in painting since early childhood, visual artist, poet, meaning seeker. He approaches life with almost philosophical precision, breaking patterns and searching for his means of artistic expression.
His paintings are surreal journeys into the farthest recesses of imagination, a sense of truth and unfettered streams of thought.
His work reveals the truth of figures, objects and landscapes, into which he weaves his surreal visions. He excels at portraiture, highlighting the character of the figures he paints. Marcus Von May's paintings have a fair amount of distance and humor, which are appreciated by collectors at home and abroad.
