"It's difficult to talk about the art of Donato Giancola and remain objective. Despite the best intentions to be analytical and coldly disaffected when standing in front of his art...it is simply not possible. There is so much passion, so much depth, and so much truth in Donato's paintings that the viewer can't help but get caught up in the stories his works tell. Simply put, among contemporary narrative artists, Donato Giancola is a master. Watching him paint "Joan of Arc" merely drives home that fact."

-Arnie & Cathy Fenner/Directors: Spectrum Fantastic Art

As one of the world's most recognized and awarded Imaginative Realist artists, Donato shares his passion of figurative arts not only through his unique body of oil paintings and drawings, but also inspires future generations through teaching at the Illustration Master Class, the School of Visual Arts, and online through the SmArt School, as well as lecturing and exhibiting at various institutions, seminars, and conventions worldwide.

Donato is currently engaged with series works on the themes of empathetic robots, astronauts, commercial cover commissions, and continued explorations within Middle-earth and other inspired worlds.
