Artist of the Month - October 2009
For the website http://www.infinitee-designs.com

See it here: http://www.infinitee-designs.com/Frederic-St-Arnaud.htm

Frederic St-Arnaud's matte paintings are of the finest quality that I have seen in a while and reflect his obvious talent for photo realism with touch of fantasy and science fiction feel to them that I just love. With rich color, realism, lighting and textures that take you away to the place that the artist wants you to go. His achievements speak for themselves and reflect the quality of his talent. Thanks Frederic for giving us all a standard to strive for!
