Shown here,in my Male Nude Art Gallery,is a very original body of High End Artworks and classic erotic drawings/paintings. A change from all the male gallery photography art school of thought sites out there.
Showcasing a few of the more recent Symbolist Artwork in the more then 25 year evolutionary painting career of Artist Claude Edwin Theriault.These pages are featuring,recent quality art works on canvas, all unframed artwork except for two smaller works on masonite.
My early influences were Nova Scotia maritime folk art,then First Nations art and have now gone;to where my current Symbolist work is now inspired by a very esoteric pre-2012 zero point end of Mayan Calender type visual .Since beneath our world of reason,lies another world.Which is why I use Archetypes; those innate inherited structures in the collective unconscious;as veritable psychological finger prints. Gods and nude male Archangels are used as symbolic metaphors of Archetypal behavior and myths as Archetypal enactments.Meaning things are not as they appear to be,there is a "serious" Honkin story going on, on the side!
I also see and use objects of Nature as symbols of the inner reality in my psyche. These outward symbols correspond directly with my inner psychological condition. Influenced and shaped by my hands which are part of the will of my spirit.Forging and Emerging it into the Light of this world.To share with the close ones I Love and care for." Meaning I feel a Painting coming on "
It is all well "Beyond art on ebay".Or what you will see on the more mainstream, erotic queer art paintings of the male nude form/Gay Art Gallery on-line Circuit .For those who find the 4 and 5 figure price tags a bit too High End ;the Gallery also has various Erotic Drawings,small numbered Editions of Etchings and Silkscreens Prints of Male Nude Art Gallery priced in the 3 figure price range ,making it quite affordable to,love,claim,buy and own a copy of my work,for ones self. Making an ideal envious addition to any serious collectors collection.Since art does nothing but grow in value while all other commodities come and go on the investor plain.
My prices reflect what I am worth as an artist. I accept payment through PayPal for the less then $2000,00 works on paper since it is simply the best and most efficient payment method I have found.
However for more expensive paintings Paypal does not accept large amounts therefore I accept cheques with a 5-10 business day period for it to clear with the bank if it is in Canadian funds and a 10 to 15 business day period allowed for the funds to clear with the bank if it is in foreign funds,after the funds have cleared with the bank I ship the works to the new owner.
I have moved several works making room for very exciting new works I will be showing with on-line video in their evolution.I still continue to work from somewhat Esoteric images in my mind.

Even though I am still configuring the set-up here as well as my expanding Toronto Art Gallery online profile ;so come into my Gallery ,and Enjoy!
