N E M O A R T I S T F E A T U R E C R O S S I N G C O N T I N E N T S Nemo grew up in Chisinau, the capital city of Moldova, an Eastern European nation renowned for its rich artistic heritage. He remembers being fascinated by the carvings and other craftworks that surrounded him. In particular he loved paintings and from an early age he was determined to become an artist. He began intense inquiry into the style and techniques of the famous painters and formed a particular interest in the work of the Surrealists. He enrolled in art school but did not enjoy the strict academic style of the Russian-based academy and abandoned his traditional training in favour of practical experience. His talent flourished and soon he was organizing large outdoor art fairs to show his work and that of other young artists. After completing his tour of duty in the army he started an art restoration business which led to painting murals in churches, until increased freedoms in a previously Soviet-dominated country inspired the desire to travel and Nemo and his family moved to Canada where he now lives and works. His work is gaining an increasing number of collectors in Canada, the US and now, Europe, and we are proud to include it in our portfolio.
