My story begins in the quiet studios of painters, surrounded by the scent of linseed oil and the profound focus of a hand guiding a brush. As a collector, I was drawn not just to the final image, but to the tangible evidence of mastery—the impasto of a confident stroke, the delicate glaze revealing layers of thought, the unique signature of a human touch that no print or digital medium could ever replicate. I founded One Zero Gallery from a deep-seated belief in the irreplaceable power of the original, hand-painted artwork.
