Ben Blatt's Visionary Art

Few days ago a good friend of mine sent me some images of Ben Blatt's beautiful art work. I found some more water color paintings on the net, but wasn't able to find his own site; probably he hasn't it. Yet I found the following description of his work in his own words..."My influences range from Persian miniatures to Dutch still lifes; terrariums and model train sets to aquariums and bonsai trees; things that are generally considered private and personal obsessions. I am always searching for contained and controlled beauty, the kind found suspended in the artificial and spectacular worlds of theme parks, old science books, history museum pamphlets, and field guides. I try to mutate or regenerate these kaleidoscopic introversions in hopes of painting a self-sustaining and boundless world."

I need further infos on this artist...
