Aesthetic Philosophy To Ignite The Imagination

Welcome to Art by Dolano!
I’m an artist driven by the passion to explore the boundaries between realism and abstraction. Each piece I create reflects my journey into aesthetic philosophy—where color, form, and thought come together to reveal hidden worlds. I invite you to explore my work, where every painting offers a new contemplation of beauty and meaning.

"Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire; you will what you imagine, and at last, you create what you will."
- George Bernard Shaw

A Reincarnation From Ballpoint Pens To Oil Paint: The Evolution Of My Aesthetic Philosophy

My creative process as a creative artist starts with the colored ballpoint pen. This simple tool calls for precision and offers little room for mistakes, setting a challenging stage for me to focus intently on the visual art I intend to create. Each pen stroke becomes an irreversible commitment, sparking a deep conversation between me and the medium, allowing me to craft an initial design. These detailed sketches are not just rough drafts. They capture the essence of my artistic ideas, providing a chance to delve into my creative impulses. From this structured beginning, my art journey takes a liberating turn towards the realm of oil paint. Here, the thick and rich oil paint transforms the initial design into a piece of aesthetic philosophy full of vibrant emotions. This transition from pen to paint isn’t a ranking of art mediums, but rather a calming journey from accuracy to freedom. It’s my unique method, to shape the vision in my mind.
