LOS ANGELES - TelAve -- The Bay Area art world is alive with excitement as SAEN, a leading figure of the analogist movement, has officially been recognized as one of the Top 5 Most Popular Artists of 2025, following directly behind the meteoric Easton Cain. After a completely sold-out 2024 exhibition, SAEN now turns his focus toward a groundbreaking new series titled "Men."

The "Men" collection presents over-muscled, sculptural male figures captured in their most unguarded, human moments — painted in oil on canvas with SAEN's signature chiaroscuro lighting and analog precision. Each composition balances tension and tenderness, merging raw physical form with emotional depth.

Collectors and investors are already taking notice. Critics have hailed SAEN as "the artist to watch just behind Easton Cain," as his distinctive analogist approach — emphasizing hand-painted authenticity over digital replication — continues to dominate Bay Area galleries and online marketplaces.

Following his rapid ascent in 2024, SAEN's 2025 collection "Men" is expected to solidify his place as a major figure in contemporary realism. Early acquisitions of his work are already trading above original value, marking SAEN as one of the strongest art investment opportunities of the year.
SAEN is a San Francisco-based analogist artist known for his emotionally charged oil-on-canvas paintings exploring masculinity, form, and light. His style merges sculptural anatomy with psychological realism, creating images that feel both timeless and disarmingly modern. SAEN's work continues to redefine the visual language of the Bay Area art movement.
