About the Artist

 Welcome to the place where you’re not sure what you're seeing.  I’m an artist who loves to trick your eyes into seeing what they think they’re seeing.  While studying animation, I realized I enjoy creating my own little worlds. I make these worlds in my paintings. These worlds show movement by manipulating the depth of Geometric forms and playing with the lighting. Creating animated little worlds on a wall that can’t be done in real life. 

Amatangelo lives in Erie, PA, with his wife and three kids; his studio is in historic Little Italy. Over the years, Amatangelo’s process has evolved along with this art to make more complex, exciting work.  The use of technology and traditional methods are at the heart of his process, and it’s ever-changing as new techniques are adapted to Amatangelo’s style.  Amatangelo’s works are in private collections worldwide, as well as public spaces and corporate offices such as Hilton Hotels, Erie Insurance, and Kroger.  Amatangelo’s Public Murals can also be seen in multiple cities as the list keeps growing.
