Bryce Cameron Liston
Bryce Cameron Liston believes
that the highest form of art is the representation of the human
figure. As a traditional painter and sculptor, he considers sound
draftsmanship and a solid knowledge of human anatomy essential
for the successful execution of his work. Collectors around the
world are very familiar with his knowledge and talent. When viewing
Liston's work in person you can't help but to be drawn into the
evocative scenes. His paintings scintillate and vibrate with
the poetry of light and subtle color variations.
But Liston's paintings of timeless
beauty embody so much more than sound draftsmanship. He believes
that an accomplished artist has the power to convey emotion and
even passion through his work by virtue of imagination, talent
and experience. The artist's sensibilities, along with his practical
knowledge allow him to merge together the technical with the
aesthetic, the physical with the spiritual. "I'm a figurative
painter focusing on narrative subjects", he says.
Liston's artistic inspiration
comes largely from the late-19th century; he lists John William
Waterhouse, William Bouguereau, Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema, and
John Singer Sargent among his strongest influences. "As
an artist my career is dedicated to the integrity and quality
of representational fine art.", says Liston. "My goal
is to regain the traditions of the past along with the standards
of craftsmanship and training. By studying the great artists
of the past, we artists of today can once again regain a full
command of proficiency to create great works of art…art
about life."
