« I like art that combines old and new, is professionally made, has a sense of humor, arouses curiosity, makes you smarter, and which you never forget. »
Thomas Johannsmeier is an experienced painter and a draftsman whose works have been exhibited nationally, as well as in Russia, the Netherlands, and France. In his compositions, classical portaits are taken out of their contexts and contrasted with elements of modern art, which consists of monochrome colors, graffiti, photos, patterns, or quotations from other images. Johannsmeier most often creates using acrylics and oils on canvas.
