Michael Parkes... El Mago del Realismo...

Siguiendo con el espectacular realismo mágico, nos topamos con Michael Parkes, nace en Missouri, USA, en 1944. Es un reconocido pintor, escultor y litógrafo conocido como el Mago del Realismo. Estudió artes gráficas y dibujo en la universidad de Kansas. Su estilo único evolucionó de forma aislada después de un periodo en que abandonó del todo la practica del arte y se fue a la India en busca de iluminación filosófica. Esta considerado como un miembro de la generación hippie. Al principio, pintaba principalmente expresionismo abstracto, el estilo común entre sus maestros, pero después de su pausa para la reflexión empezará a dibujar y pintar en un estilo meticuloso y detallado que le permite dar plena expresión a su mundo interior con sus imágenes.

Denny Dent... Painting and dancing...

Dennis E. "Denny" Dent (April 5, 1948 – March 29, 2004) was an American speed painter who was known for his frenetic performances as he painted large portraits of celebrities.[1]

Dent was born in Oakland, California and graduated from Oakland High School. His style emerged after he painted a spontaneous portrait of John Lennon at a 1980 vigil. Dent married Ali Christina Flores.

A Denny Dent performance, which he referred to as a "Two-Fisted Art Attack," consisted of him rapidly painting on a 6-foot-tall (1.8 m) black canvas with multiple brushes in both hands, as well as painting with his bare hands, to a musical accompaniment. Over the course of just a few short songs, he would complete a portrait. His subjects were most often musicians, but also included other entertainers, sports figures, and political leaders. One of his most famous performances was at the Woodstock '94 concert.

Dent died in Denver of complications from a heart attack.
