Antoine's art is a dynamic exploration of form and color, designed to ignite a sense of wonder in those who experience it. Using a mixture of acrylics and a palette knife, he crafts striking abstract pieces that showcase the beauty of organic shapes and vibrant hues. Drawing inspiration from the natural world, Antoine layers his paintings with intricate mark making and captivating textures, resulting in a visual feast for the eyes. Each artwork is a reflection of his deep love for the artistic process and a heartfelt invitation for viewers to pause and appreciate the magic of existence. In a world that often feels chaotic, Antoine's art provides a moment of serenity and connection with the boundless beauty that surrounds us.
Antoine drew his subjects with a very strong accent on bright colors which is represented in most of his artistic work. His Middle Eastern heritage was the primary
cause of using such strong primary colors. Red, yellow and green colors reflect the direct influence of dry and hot summers.
Antoine's first oil painting exhibition was at the Caisse Populaire Desjardins in Lennoxville, Quebec, Canada while he was studying at Bishops' University.
In addition to his love for painting, he discovered digital painting while using Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and Penup platform. In October 2018, Antoine Khanji was inducted to the Hall of Fame of digital artists where he pioneered expressing different styles and mediums in the digital world, Antoine has more than 11 000 followers on www.penup.com.
