Visual Artist
About the artist: InternationalArtGroup by BeyondEyeGallery proud to represent recognized Artist Al Alcantara,...
Artist Al Alcantara has broadened his repertoire to include landscapes, still-life imagery and women figures, while never abandoning the wildlife that first sparked his imagination. Throughout his imagery, one can find a certain sense of harmony. This tranquility is partly a result of his gentle brushstrokes and his talent to illustrate the play of light in both nature and man-made objects. Al’s work is adept at capturing a fleeting moment in time and seemingly transporting the viewer there. The artist’s unique style demonstrates his ability to transcend traditional parameters and to constantly challenge himself in finding new avenues of expression.
The paintings of artist Al Alcantara are dreamscapes of shadow worlds that are a perfect blending of the artist's imagination and the subtleties of nature that he knows so well. .
He has carried his fascination with the unique and unusual into a wide range of multi-media artwork, including interior Accents and art deco styles, as well as design of remarkable hand-made-painted-frames that are unsurpassed for whimsy, innovation and theatrical flair.
He developed a strong grounding in draftsmanship, which allowed his figurative and architectural work to emanate a level of sincerity reached by combining his intimate understanding of his subject’s physical properties as well as its symbolism.
His creative interests range from figurative,portrairiture and landscape to architectural representation. The beauty of the women world inspires Al and his approach is versatile. His paintings explore a variety of styles and subject matter in an introspective manner. He experiments with elements of line and light, combining them in an effort to distinguish both his softness and more traditional works with a sentiment of spirituality. The ability to marry seemingly opposing elements is characteristic in many of his pieces. Al Alcantara has the propensity to extract influences from vastly different genres and uniquely transform them into his own expressive pieces. This integration reflects the complexity and beauty of the world that inspires Al.
