Sebastian Salvo is a classical painter who employs myths and archetypal stories in his work. He studied with Odd Nerdrum in 2015, and has frequently returned to work alongside his master.
His technical level, handling of composition, and ability to depict liveful stories on the canvas, has made some to consider him one of the greatest living painters.
Salvo is one of the founding members of the Memorosa Group, an order of craftsmen who follow strict dogma in their work, chiefly based on Greek and Renaissance principles.
A study of great interest for Salvo has been the fierce competition among craftsmen in 15th century Europe, and how to reinstate this spirit among today’s painters.
