Robert “Rob” Gonsalves (July 10, 1959 – June 14, 2017) was a Canadian painter of magic realism (surrealism). He produced original works, limited edition prints and illustrations for his own books.
Gonsalves was born in Toronto, Ontario. As a child, he developed an interest in art. By the age of thirteen, his awareness of architecture grew as he learned perspective techniques and he began to create his first paintings and renderings of imagined buildings. After exposure to the work of artists such as Swanwick, Escher, Dalí, and Tanguy, Gonsalves began his first surrealistic paintings. The “Magic Realism” approach of Magritte along with the precise perspective illusions of Escher came to be influences in his future work.
