Sal Salinero
|
Internationally-renowned and winner of numerous awards, Key West artist Sal Salinero is considered an "island treasure". Born in 1941 in Key West, Florida, he has lived there most of his life, his reputation as one of Key West’s favorite artists is well deserved. His paintings of wildlife and tropical foliage reflect the understanding of one who has been surrounded by his subject matter. Sal Salinero is also considered a master of still life and trompe l’oeil. His ability to capture the nuances of reflected light have earned him an enviable position among Florida’s Art Community. For many years he has explored the tropical rainforests around the world and photographed what is left. The images that he has obtained from these travels have been transferred into his body of work. |
