Artist painter Wayne Salvatore was born in Hartford, CN in 1948. Art and abstract art started dominating in his life early on – he loved exploring the works of artists like Salvador Dali and Vincent Van Gogh. Although his formal education was in Photojournalism, abstract art was an area he was yearning to dive into. In 2004 Wayne was stuck with a dilemma. He had bought over 24 quarts of paint from the local Kelly-Moore paint store, trying to decide on colors for the interior of his house. Rather than toss all that paint, he decided to buy a couple of large canvases and use it for the creation of abstract art paintings. His first couple of abstract fine art pieces looked splendid, so off he went.
