I am a predominantly lens based artist, but I also value transdisciplinary art and the various possibilities and outcomes that intersection and collage inspire. … The theme of uncovering beauty in the mundane while celebrating life's essence with authenticity is the common thread woven into all of my work.

Angelo about Angelo: I am a cartoonist and a fine artist who has been deeply influenced by cartoons and children's book illustrations.  My early heroes were cartoonists like Charles Schulz, Jack Kirby, Bill Watterson as well as children's book illustrators like Maurice Sendak, Garth Williams, John Tenniel, who had these great pen and ink styles.  During college, I acquired a love of a wider group of fine artists.  But I never lost my love of the great pen and ink cartoonists and artists.

In-Person Meeting with Demonstration of An Improvisational Style of Abstract Painting With Acrylic Markers on Paper by Jemal Diamond

My drawing style comes from the grand tradition of doodling. The smooth, gentle roll of a pen across the pulpy texture of paper is meditative and soothing. It’s the marks we make in the margins while our focused minds are elsewhere I find most interesting. Most of the work is improvisational, with no intended outcome – only hopeful surprises.
