Victor Bauer (American, 1969)

"My name is Victor Bauer and currently I live and work in New York. My work can be found in corporate and private collections in the US, Europe and Canada.

My earlier works were mostly abstracts and during these years I developed my own style and technique using mostly just a palette knife".
