Something About

Roy Grillo

A face is just a mask, a covering to protect the soul.  
The mask is a disguise to hide what one is by appearing
as something else.  Inherently we are all the same inside
and out.  Regardless of race, creed or color of our skin,
we are all human beings.

I consider myself to be a human being and a student of
the human condition. I am a barometer that measures
the relative pressure of society.  As a result, I am an
Artist.

My purpose is to be an observer of life, to better
understand myself and my place in the world, to touch
others and allow myself to be touched by them and to
create deep spiritual connections to myself and those
around me.

I investigate these themes through mask like portraiture,
stylized landscapes, woodblock and monoprints.

My work explores a desire to communicate effectively.
Most often with great frustration I fail. Sometimes I have
moments of soul to soul connection.
