Painting CORNER by Karoun Amine | Painting Figurative Urban Oil

Born in the cultural and cosmopolitan Algerian city of Tlemcen, Amine studied arts at the École des Beaux-Arts d’Oran, from where he graduated in 2017. He divides his time between his job as a graphic designer and his passion for painting. This young artist mainly works on reproducing contemporary and expressive urban landscapes. Amine is not particularly interested in meticulously following a particular style or movement while painting; instead, he prefers to draw what he needs from various styles to create art that contains a medley of different influences. Amine’s painting methods are greatly inspired from techniques originating from the two opposing styles of Classicism and Impressionism, and yet still draw from other styles as well. This has been the driving force behind his ventures into contemporary art.
