Toros is a successful and well-known artist that is often seen within the art world as a modern day representative of the original avant-garde school of thought. He is known for his use of bright, bold colors and whimsical subject matter to create dream-like scenes and images that emulate an overall sense of joyful exuberance and often invoke a sense of wonder, mystery, and nostalgia in the viewer. In today's world that places the utmost importance on materialism, power, and professional achievement, Toros challenges art lovers to remember the innocence of their childhood and incorporate simpler values and attitudes into their hectic, modern lives. Through his innovative and imaginative images he stresses the importance of interweaving reality with imagination and inventiveness to prevent the development of cold, calcified, inflexible world views and value systems like the ones the original avant-garde artists fought so hard to oppose.

When it comes to his method of creativity Toros also keeps the avant-garde tradition alive and well by placing an emphasis on expression over representation. He seeks to create emotional experiences and impressions with his images as opposed to meticulously accurate recordings of the world around him. In an artistic world where it is often wondered whether or not the new "rule" to follow is in the rejection of all traditions that came before, Toros also pays homage to movements like cubism and fauvism in many of his images by incorporating their influences into his own unique and imaginative style. The mesmerizing masterpieces of Toros are a seamless intermingling of classic influences and modern values that offer the art lover something valuable and beautiful that is familiar and completely unique all at once.
