Artist Tony Pavone
Born in
Ohio from parents of European descent, Tony Pavone's childhood was filled with
art, operas, musicals and passion for culture. His artistic abilities became
evident when, at the age of 3, he opened his father's anatomy and art books and
drew the internal anatomy of the human body. His father, an artist, as well as
an opera singer, would take Tony, along with his three siblings, to all the
local operas - exposing them to the stage designs and the performance
excitement. His mother, a concert pianist and organist, performed regularly at
the cathedral in Cincinnati. The artistic abilities of his parents would be a
great influence on his own future endeavors. Art played a primary roll in
Tony's life. In his youth his favorite amusement was studying and imitating the
styles of artists such as William Blake, Frank Frazetta, Heinrich Kley and
Michelangelo Buonarroti. At the age of 8, he began working with his family
creating stained glass windows for local churches and restaurants throughout
the mid-west, using new Plexiglas materials - a patented process Tony's father
invented.
