EXHIBITION

Dab Art Co. is pleased to present BIG EYE, a solo exhibition of works by Dave Manousos. View the online exclusive BIG EYE in its entirety on our collectors platform ARTSY (Jul 18 - Oct 18, 2022).

Most of my character paintings have dual personalities competing in a single space. When viewing one of my paintings, take your hand and cover one side of the face then do the same on the other side. You will see two different emotions or expressions co-existing in the same space. My current Big Eye Collection is a compilation of character paintings that combine both my illustration and painting techniques.

My love of art was spawned at an early age by my grandmother who was a fine artist. She lived with our family and, out of my 10 other siblings, I was the only one that she allowed in her studio. She patiently taught me drawing and painting techniques that I still use today.
As an observer of people and what makes each individual unique, I pull from my experiences, or encounters with others. I retain some unique aspect of a personality that strikes me as interesting, unique or just memorable and I bring that to life in my characters when I paint.
Over the past 35 years I have experimented with many techniques of painting and illustrating. I have written and illustrated children’s books, been a graphic designer and continued to paint.
-Dave Manousos
