Van Hovak
Born: 1973
Hometown: Yerevan
Based in: Los Angeles
I am a professional artist painting in oil and acrylic for over 30 years. I received degree at the Los Angeles Valley College (LAVC), Department of Art and at the Armenian State University (ASPU).
I have participated in a numerous exhibition. I work in wide range of styles, use different materials and like to experiment with different mediums. I use my art to paint my feelings about what I experience and feel. For me, it’s a form of visual communication, and I speak it using my brush and paints.
Many of my paintings can be found in corporate and private collections in France, England, Germany, Switzerland and the United States.
Live and work in Los Angeles.
