Solomon Walker is a professional Canadian Artist and Photographer,
living in the beautiful cosmopolitan city of Toronto, Ontario. He is the
Founder/CEO of the Museum Of Digital Fine Arts (MODFA), a unique
projects supporting Digital Arts, Artists and Photographers.
Solomon has been drawing and painting since the age of 11. His formal
artistic education started with public and technical schooling,
workshops and personal tutorship. He was taught by some of the best art
instructors in Ontario Canada. His specialized training included
painting, drawing, anatomy, sculpture, portraiture, graphics design,
print making, illustration, computer graphics, typography, fashion
design, photography and video-graphy and wood carving.
Throughout the years, Solomon extended his education and work into
business, law, motion pictures and computers. And, as a business
entrepreneur, he worked in sales, marketing, distribution, publishing
and management, going on to own and operate a bookstore, import/export
giftware company, a magazine editor and publisher, a retail clothing
store, founded the brand – Fields&explorer Sportswear, plus
computers/electronics stores in the city of Toronto. During this period,
Solomon kept busy artistically by drawing and doodling in notebooks
many inspirational, creative ideas, and also wrote poetry. All of which
would serve him well later.
During the 90′s Solomon explored various ways to produce new and
original fine art, but mainly with traditional tools and techniques. It
wasn’t until the mid and late 90′s that he found the answer when he was
introduced to Photoshop, Corel Draw and other digital graphics software
and art. He was immediately taken by them and soon realized that this
was the ideal modern medium which he was searching for to express his
creative visions. So, over months and endless hours in front of the
computer screen, he refined his digital education skills, rendering new
and unique pieces of art that really satisfied his senses.
Today, Solomon says that he creates new fine art and images from
emotions and various cultural philosophies. He is influenced and is
inspired by various aspects of life, of living, plus a whole host of
everyday issues. His artistic style and techniques are clearly inspired
by classic realism, modern abstract expressionism, cubism, conceptual,
dadaism, plus other movements in art, from the ancient times to the
contemporary. He works mainly in the digital format on computer
canvases, and likes to produce work in a mix of abstracts and conceptual
forms, arriving at a final look that is truly unique and his own. And,
when working with the camera he prefers to produce images in Black &
White, covering landscape, nature and urban views.
Solomon has participated in various local and international art and
photo events, and has been awarded for is creative vision. His work is
sold through various online galleries and bought and collected by buyers
