The narrative quality of Aldo Balding's
magnificent paintings is usually what initially draws his viewers
in. Aldo's works have been referred to as "nostalgic",
but he considers them timeless.
Aldo's conveys his love of the more formal time and finds a suited
man is much more interesting, narratively speaking, than someone
in sneakers and jeans.
He continues the timeless feel of his work into his interior
scenes and landscapes. |
