Frank De Painter in a state of heavenly madness

History tells us that creative people sometimes go into a state of “heavenly madness” and it enables them to communicate deeply with their art, be it visual or performing. Frank The Painter is a man who likes to tell his stories through his artworks and his creativity has proven to be essential.

We may never know the emotional effects that drives him to strike canvas with paint every time but the artist told Arts & Culture that he called the collection ‘Art is hell of a drug’ because he has realised that once someone understands art there is no turning back. “You can’t retreat from it,” he said.
