About
Oscar Toloza born Reseda, California 1992, is a contemporary artist based in central Indiana. Dropping out of art school in 2012, he did not find his passion for art until 2019. Since then Oscar has taught himself how to work with multiple mediums. From acrylic paint (his favorite :)), to spray paint, to water color, digital, all the way to charcoal. It's all the same to him. It’s all about the act of creating, "the chase" he calls it.
Oscar is inspired mainly by color and the way it can grab a viewer without the viewer knowing why. That is his favorite thing about art. When it grabs you and you forget you exist for a brief moment.
He likes to show the many ways we are connected to the universe. Exploring the human condition is the base from where he jumps off of.
Oscar hopes to continue his career by doing more large scale work.
Artist Statement
“I enjoy showing how everything is connected in a harmonious way through my art. Like a flower I use color to invite the viewer to look closer and see all the intricacies art/life has to offer.”
My art is always about the journey. I believe at the core of human existence what we truly we want is to be surprised. Art is my way of surprising myself and others. It’s a never ending search that is ultimately fun/healing. I hope my art can be healing.
