Comment: None of the sources actually give a detailed coverage of Rudolf Gonzalez. Many sources are simply mention Gonzalez once in a gallery announcement, and the only two sources that do not [1][2], give very surface level commentary about his art. This naturally results in many of the claims in the draft being unsourced. Ca talk to me! 10:29, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Rodolfo "Rudolf, Rudy, Ody" Gonzalez (Filipino: Rodolfo Sarmiento Gonzalez, February 27, 1955 – March 5, 2020) was a Filipino painter known for his cloudscape, seascape, still life, and abstract art works.
Early life and education
[edit]Gonzalez was born on February 27, 1955, to Rick Gonzalez and Nemy Sarmiento in Manila, Philippines. He was the eldest of six children, with brothers Rodel Gonzalez[1] and Naldy Gonzalez who were the co-founders of the Filipino pop band Side A (band) in 1985.[2][3]
Rudolf started exploring art at 8 with the influence of his father, Rick, and grandfather, Felix Gonzalez, a first-generation Gonzalez artist[4]. By age 12, he sold his first 9 x 12 seascape in their family gallery along Mabini Street in Ermita, Manila.
He studied architecture and fine arts at Far Eastern University.
Style and influence

His style developed from those of his admired artists, including Rembrandt, John Singer Sargent, and Alfred Sisley.
