Biography
About
Manuel Torosyan was born on August 2, 1959 to a family of an engineer-constructor. Since childhood, he has liked most of all to paint and this influenced his decision to become a painter. At the age of 13 he won the first prize at the Young Painter’s International Competition in the city of Crimea, Ukraine. Manuel has deeply studied basically all the main art trends and, as a result, he created his own three styles, which, according to the experts, are a new rod in art. Since 1997 as a US Citizen and participated in exhibits in Glendale. There are two articles written by the Los Angeles Times about artist Manuel Toros in 2000, Oct. 27, and two articles by “ARTIST CLOSEUP” #5, and #11, 2023.
Manuel has developed his own technique and media which is very recognizable, mysterious, and magnificent. In fact, he has established his brand.
Manuel’s art has great value as it has been created in a dimension of no time and no defined space or place. Only a higher frequency can connect you to the universe, to the infinite stars, and inspirations.
This is a difficult journey to transform all those mysterious vibration sequences into the art piece as we see on Manuel’s canvas. But the art we see on Manuel’s artwork completes the transformation of all of these mysteries and dimensions.
