Del Almeida: Modernist California Landscape Painter - Epi. 99, Host Dr. Mark Sublette

Deladier Almeida discusses his life story of growing up in Brazil
and starting as an architecture student, graphic artist, and
illustrator before gravitating to fine art, first starting as a
portrait painter inspired by a book on John Howard Sanden's work
before becoming a landscape artist. Del shares his method and
motivation giving me insight into how he creates his work, how
his architecture with city planning influenced his landscape
paintings, not only from a technical standpoint, but from an
emotional standpoint as well. Del moved from Brazil to California
where he studied under such luminaries as Wayne Thiebaud, Roland
Peterson and Roy Dean Deforest at UC Davis. This podcast details
an interesting journey from São Paulo all to Davis, California,
and everything in between. I think you'll really enjoy this
interview, I know I did and am thrilled to be able to represent
his work at Medicine Man Gallery.
