If you want to see original paintings of uplifting and inspirational messages, have Glen Tarnowski’s works.
Tarnowski is known as the father of "Modern Alegorism", 'using the techniques of the old masters in a whimsical, inspirational and paradoxical way to transform everyday 21st century objects into a visual essay on the modern condition'.
He was recently given an Angel Award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for Best Motion Picture Graphics for the film, 'The Pale Rider' in 1996.
Tarnowski gives each painting with 'more than a visual stimulation of the senses. His choice in values of color and light symbolically portrays Humanity, as he creates a view through a window into the innermost core of our being, insightfully revealing the extraordinary range of human attributes and emotions. Each painting provides an artistic exercise for the mind.' See each painting on Glen Tarnowski 's site.
