How did I find my artistic voice?
From birth my father showed me that my hands are an extension of making things beautiful, so coming from a long line of artisans and Hungarian artistic roots, I seriously engaged fine arts while studying Philosophy at the University of Ottawa. My wife Elizabeth received my first composition in oil which paved the way for further exploration.
Alongside art, mathematics is deeply engrained into my family's heritage, especially on the Teleki-side. In combining the two, I have developed the style of Geometric Representation and my signature piece was created during the period of my father Tibor's passing in July 2021. While coming to terms with this reality, I am turning my attention to extracting something significant out of my artistic style, that is: to build from illusory models of expression and have the pieces seemingly move. Teleki believes underlying all existence are geometric underpinnings that come through his artwork.
Along the way, I have met some remarkable mentors, like Norman R. Brown and Tim Packer from whom I have learned about passion, voice, and structure. Victor Vasarely also significantly influences Teleki's approach to painting and design. Upon learning en plein air painting, I began providing experiences to teach anyone that inside them lies an especially unique brush stroke of composition, contrast, and colour, or as Packer puts it "your voice".
