"New Day" by Ahzad Bogosian is a framed 16"x18.5" acrylic painting on canvas.
Artist Statement:
Born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, Ahzad Bogosian holds
both BFA and MFA degrees from Fontbonne University and was
enrolled in the MFA program at Washington University. Channeling the
Midwest and Western landscapes as sources for his mood-rich paintings,
Bogosian has developed an extensive and breathtaking body of work.
A co-founder of IN/Form, a not-for-profit arts group in St. Louis,
Bogosian has also organized and curated many shows and exhibitions,
such as Five Views of the Midwest and the 2012 exhibition Paper

many publications, including New American Paintings and John
Driscoll’s 1998 book, The Artist and the American Landscape.
“My work is a response to the atmospheric, sublime qualities and
spiritual essence that exists in landscapes. Using memory sketches
and photographs, I paint on canvas, wood, and paper to explore
scale, brushwork, and my emotional response to these images. I see
timelessness in the work. A sense of tranquilly and serenity in this digital
era.”
