Artist's profile
Tomas Honz graduated at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague, where he studied painting under Michael Rittstein. He also studied Chinese painting and calligraphy in Taiwan and illustration in the United States. Honz is a prominent talent of the young contemporary scene and his work highlights a growing interest in classical painting. His work centres around traditional techniques however he is not averse to the incorporation of modern technology into his portfolio, such as digital painting. Being open to both traditional and contemporary styles further projects onto all aspects of Honz’ life; becoming a recognisable characteristic of his works.
