Once
again Steve Cieslawski has succeeded in astounding with the continued
depth and growth in his new paintings!
He
proves that Surrealist painters are born with the Surrealist viewpoint.
It can't be learned or faked and no amount of desire to paint surrealistically
can even approach the truth of the sensibility that Cieslawski exhibits
naturally.'
The intensity
of the paintings is only rivaled by the technical virtuosity that is displayed.
There is not a hairsbreadth of missed opportunity or a misstep in the
wrong direction within these provocative 'Landscapes of the Mind.'
The pure
joy that he must experience as he paints is transmitted to the viewer.
The observer of his paintings must thank him for contributing to their
own sense of wonder and enjoyment.
It is with
great pride and humility that we honestly say that CFM's association with
Steve Cieslawski is one of the highpoints in the history of the gallery.
