This directory is not in any particular order although I have placed the artists who are educators towards the top. This list will be evolving and it will be updated as needed. It is best to view this list from a desktop. Contact Didi Menendez if you are a working figurative artist and would like to be added.
Getting into the figurative art market is not an easy task. Most of these artists at the time this went to press have less than 5000 followers yet it doesn't take a huge number of followers to land into collections. Here are ten whose work I am watching.
This list will be updated for the next round.
Agnieszka Nienartowicz was born in 1991 in Jelenia Góra, a small town in Lower Silesia, Poland. She studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk, where in 2016 she received a Master of Fine Arts, at the painting studio led by Prof. Maciej Świeszewski with a supplement in drawing under Prof. Maria Targońska. In the years 2011-2013 she studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Wrocław. She was awarded several scholarships, a number of awards and distinctions. Her works are situated in collections in Poland, United States, Canada, Germany, Austria and Ireland. She is represented by RJD Gallery in New York.
From time to time we get stuck in our creative paths. Here are some inspiring moments which lead to a new road for these figurative artists. These are not in any particular order.
Garbage, hand-me-downs, grandma's doilies, trash and recycled materials are the inspiration and sometimes the materials in these works of art.
When you are an artist all you need are the tools of the trade.
Usually, the adjective "beautiful" is used when describing a female but it is time to change that. Here are 50 paintings of males in anticipation of our upcoming issue titled EROS GAZE, May 2018. The photo which shows up in the header is by Rose Freymuth-Frazier. One of her paintings will grace the cover. Some of the paintings below were submitted for the publication.
Just another 100 List brought to you by Didi Menendez, publisher, and curator of PoetsArtists. It is not in any particular order other than all the artists are members of the PA platform. The way these lists work is that the members are given a secret hashtag to use on Instagram. We are testing out new ways to publish and use social media and this list is one of the results. We also added previously published videos from other projects. In some studios, you may catch a glimpse of some of the works in progress for our upcoming exhibitions. What makes this list so great is that it shows what a strong community of artist take part in our projects.
This list was compiled by Didi Menendez and Walt Morton. Making the list reflects international reputation and acclaim or being among the best in a particular niche or style. This list is not a ranking. It exists merely to share names of contemporary high-quality artists which we enjoy keeping an eye on. This list is posted from Instagram so if an artist is not currently active there, then by default they did not make the list. Please note that we are unable to post nude figures on Buzzfeed Community. This list is in no particular order.
As the title implies, these are the badass painters chosen by the publisher of PoetsArtists magazine. Some are breaking through and others have been painting for decades.
