 About: George Pocheptsov
Abstract and Impressionistic
George Pocheptsov is completely self-taught in the arts. George
is often compared by the press to a young Pablo Picasso or Marc
Chagall, particularly for his vivid color palette and early rise
to fame. His paintings can sell upward of $200,000. Starting
around the age of sixteen, George started to focus more on
three-dimensional canvas and impressionistic art. The 3D canvas
is effectively making a sculpture on canvas. George creates this
effect by taking a regular piece of stretched canvas and putting
layers of un-stretched canvas over it, and then sculpts figures
on that layer. At that point, he paints the figures with
multiple layers of gesso (a primer), and once they dry, he
paints the details onto the sculpture. For more detailed aspects
of the Sculpture, such as nose, eyelashes, fingers, etc., on a
figure, he uses modeling paste. In the end, each figure in the
piece has three sides, each painted, making a truly
three-dimensional impressionistic piece of art.
