HAGEGE |
|
Logan finds
encouragement and guidance in masters of the past including Gustav Klimpt,
N.C. Wyeth, T.W. Dewing and Maynard Dixon. One idea that drives Logan’s
work is that evolution in art is never ending. He is constantly
challenging himself with new concepts and new ways of looking at the same
subject. He has taught figure painting at The Art
Academy and is a Mentor Member of the California Art Club. Mr. Hagege has
received numerous first place awards and has been featured in American Art
Collector, Southwest Art Magazine (Artists to Watch) and
American Artist Magazine. He is an instructor at
the L.A. Academy of Figurative Art. ”The majority of my
work is produced in series; I am not complete with a subject if I paint it
only once. A similar feeling would be having a conversation with a
good friend once and then never again. Whether I am painting a
portrait, a figure on the beach, a building or a tree, I am constantly
searching for a final piece interesting enough to stimulate my visual
sense as well as challenging me along the way. Composition, color and
texture are more important to me than a particular “style”. I do
not consider myself an impressionist, or an expressionist. I paint
what strikes me at that very moment and one painting leads me to the next. I
hope this honest vision comes through in my work. “ |
