"No other artist in the world paints like Stefan Duncan. Each painting consists of thousands of strokes of unblended color. Although he has been recognized around the world as America's Van Gogh, Stefan has created his own unique voice with Squigglism that  may define him as one of the greatest artists of our generation.
