Artist Bio: William Michael Yenkevich paints in the traditional realist style using the academic approach of the Old Masters of the 15th thru 17th centuries and is one of those rare talented individuals like a singer born with perfect pitch, he is gifted with an innate understanding of form, color, design, perspective and proportion. His ability to then translate his perceptions, utilizing the visual language of classical painting, is flawless. Light is his muse and the Old Masters no doubt his inspiration. With his meticulously crafted forms with highlights and shadows, he illuminates each painting with his use of optical grays and subtle glazes. There is a certain intimacy and pastoral ease in Williams paintings. For in his world he promotes order, clarity, pureness, perfection, and passion. The beauty of his painting is not created to express the real world but to replace it with a better one. His painting is respectful of the great classical tradition from which he learnt fine craftsmanship and wisdom of the Old Masters. His desire as an artist is to record a vision of beauty and perfection in a less than perfect age…
