Welcome to artbyai.com, the website of New Mexico artist Anthony P. Iannini. The art on these web pages is a gallery of both his currently available pieces and a small sampling of his best unavailable artwork.

Anthony began painting seriously in Los Angeles in the summer of 2002. Since then, he has lived and shown artwork at various venues and galleries primarily in New Orleans (2003-04), Tampa (2004-07), and New Mexico (2007-Present). Anthony has lived in New Mexico since the beginning of 2007 and has shown in Santa Fe and Albuquerque. He is currently painting and living in Albuquerque, exploring artistic opportunities in the area. He shows and sells his artwork at various venues and also sells pieces over the internet, through this and other websites.

"My goal is to create unique works of color and form that cause an emotional response in the observer. My decision to begin painting was largely due to my frustration with language and the written word as a means of communicating. Like music, visual art is immediately experienced and the only interpretation required is completed almost instantly within the viewer. My past education in philosophy and my travels abroad have influenced much of my work. My artistic influences include Matisse, Van Gogh, Kandinsky, Chagall, and Pollack. I tend to paint various abstracted ideas and objects with vivid colors, contrast, and, often, some level of linear constraint. I enjoy using extreme textures and high-gloss varnishes to richen colors and play with light from different angles. Texture adds a new dimension to paintings and preserves every stroke the artist makes." -Anthony Iannini
