David Jon Kassan is a street artist from Brooklyn (New York, USA). But on the walls of houses, he does not paint traditional graffiti, but ordinary people. But he draws so realistically that it seems that his characters are about to leave the canvas and heal with their own lives.
On David's website, his work is called "an expression of his deliberate observation and visual consumption of the surrounding world." The artist's drawings strive for reality, are the author's attempt to show life in full and with all its complexities. David Cassan's works may or may not be liked - everyone has a different attitude to realism in art. But it must be admitted that the artist's observation and his ability to capture what he saw in the smallest detail is a talent that deserves admiration.
David tries to paint so realistically that, according to him, the invented strokes of his brush do not stand in the way of communication between the model in the drawing and the viewer, so that contact between them is established directly.
The artist often draws members of his family, claiming that in this way he manages to better understand them. And he painted his own portrait with the same purpose - to understand himself.
“Time is the most precious thing we have; not a single moment of our life can be brought back. I want to spend my time trying to understand the world that surrounds me. Drawing is my notebook,”says David.
