Circlism Entry for Wikipedia: A work in progress!

...CIRCLISM... (sur`kliz`em) n. application of paint by diagramming an image in terms of tiny circles or figures to create an effect of subtle and complex dimensions. A school of painting exemplified by Stresino in the early 21st century United States. {Middle English cercle from old French, from Latin circulus} circle- a plane curve everywhere equidistant from a given fixed point, the center. surklizt n. & adj. sur`kliz`tic adj. Compare pointillism.

        Edward C. Stresino introduced to the art world his invention of Circlism in the year 1985. The development of Circlism comes from the idea of drawing an image in terms of tiny circles or shapes to create a unique perspective. In The Story of Circlism (published by Xlibris 2012) on page 11 "This perspective allows the viewer to see through the eyes of the artist." The inception of Circlism as Stresino states in his book, occurred in 1985 during his high school Biology Class. Stresino was viewing a Biology film involving the process of cell division known as mitosis. This process involves the chromosomes in the nucleus of the parent cell to duplicate and divide into two identical sets. This film presentation inspired Stresino to start drawing circles, and dividing them until they could be divided no more.

           Examples of Circlism have been exhibited in Edward C. Stresino’s artwork : at the Burbank Police and Fire Museum, Hangar 1018 benefiting Katrina survivors, The Pinewood Derby at Hangar 1018 in Los Angeles, and in Sacramento at the California State Teacher's Federal Building.

Book Review:


     Stresino's origin story for Circlism is an inspiration for all artists to utilize and implement this very innovative technique. Stresino's influences of Van Gogh, Monet, Kandisky, and Picasso can clearly be seen in his artwork.  Stresino's very art like those before him, will help to define Visual Art for the 21st century and beyond!  
      The Story of Questor is an added bonus that gives the reader insight into the Artist's mind, and happens to create and envision a world beyond one's own very imagination for his pieces': Questor, Warrior Princess, and Questor's Labyrinth.
    As a result The Story of Circlism is a special treat for all readers and Connoisseur's of Art.  The Author and Artist Stresino has simultaneously created an Art book, a graphic novel, and has reimagined the fable: The Frog and The Scorpion.  Where else could one be inspired, informed, and entertained all at once?

Kirkus Book Review:

      Visual artist Edward C. Stresino, in his debut, describes the origins of his artistic technique with examples and stories.
      In 1985, the author, while taking a high school biology class, became extremely focused on the concept of mitosis, a form of cell division that splits a cell in two, dividing its chromosomes into two identical sets. 
     This inspired him to begin creating drawings composed of tiny circles. His paintings dominate the pages of this book and provide readers with vivid examples of his technique, which he calls “Circlism.”
