Germany painter, Mike Dargas already started painting as a child. Besides his early works and sketches he already uses oil colour and sells first works to friends of the family. In his early 20s he became famous in the tattoo scene and wins all important awards and grants. His works show the picture of people, painted realistically in oil on canvas.
The precise technique gives, like a photography, a snapshot of the moment. The artist studies his motifs with such intensity, that each portrait pictures a profile of increasing intimate closeness. The perfection of his technique seems to search for the perfect image, like he was searching for the soul within each single one.
