The Artist Stresino in his argument is trying to take the circle and use it as a filter through his own imagination. He succeeds in creating an original piece of artwork that not only uses the circle but enhances the way a viewer can see the image as only he can see it.
Stresino explains that Picasso's artwork is perceived by the viewer as a new vision of the Artist's eye, "Which brings me to Picasso and what he viewed as beautiful as to what we as a consumer society view as beautiful. Picasso was able to absorb the world around him and, allow others to see his beauty through these images that looked strange or odd to the human eye. (or the viewer) In reality what he created was his vision that invoked a style of beauty. Within this premise, Circlism, is a tool that I use to invoke a style of beauty. So please if you read this do not place negative stereotypes on such an innocent bystander as the circle. The circle can be used as a positive force in understanding the world around us. I can think of several images which first being that the sun to our eye is like a circle; bringing life through its rays of pure heat and energy. In biblical pictures halos which are the shape of circles that a sense of goodness and well being is revealed to us. The circle itself has no sides, but is curvaceous. The simple idea of roundness is attractive to human nature. Circles have a style which no other shape possesses. The style that comes out is one of bounciness." (Stresino as quoted on his blog Father of Circlism)
Stresino succeeds in creating a newly formed style of beauty that from the get go is as original and innovative take on how circles can enhance an image by delineating and focusing on the positive and negative spaces! Stresino succeeds where other artists have failed.
