Arturo Samaniego is a Mexico-born figurative and abstract artist.
I photographed him in his Naples studio, in front of his gorgeous portrait of
the Chinese dissident artist, Al Weiwei.
To watch Arturo create this Weiwei painting, visit this time lapse video.
Even if you don't have 13 minutes to see the whole video, at least sample it.
You will be fascinated to watch him turn a blank canvas into fine art.

Wonderful video, Jack! It was like magic seeing the image appear and change so quickly! He's good.

Impressive shots, particularly the first.
Nice portraits and painting.
I saw the Ai Weiwei exhibit when it was here in Berlin. I have to admit, I was not super impressed. But I like this portrait.
Very nice, the top image, of the artist and his work.
Great portrait of the artist.
