Apocalypse | 2300x1700mm. Oil. 1993

Apocalypse | 2300x1700mm. Oil. 1993

This large oil painting is a composition that came along with me for several years.

I started in 1991 and I finished in 1996. I forgot about it for months because I did not know how to end it.

As you can see, in the composition there is a hard reality overflown by a spiritual iconography.

It is a hard, dark and destructive reality in which hope resurrects from a spiritual dimension.

This acrylic painting, despite being small, took me months to solve it out. It’s an attempt of explosion or attack.

The scene reflects destruction, avoiding realistic rawness; it is already reflected, unfortunately, on the news every day.

Above all, I wanted to reflect injustice, pain and death, hope and future, all together at the same time.

Here we have another large oil painting.

This composition was made during August 1993 to with tight time to participate in a painting contest.

Even though it was not rewarded, at least it was an excuse to make it.

Bird and procreation | 660x670mm. Acrilic. 2001

Bird and procreation | 660x670mm. Acrilic. 2001

This is an oneiric painting.

Dreams are full of magic and, trying to remember them, they lose their mystery and all that’s left from them is a story that lacks all that magic.

My intention was to reflect and capture that sense of unreality typical of dreams

San Antonio’s Temptations | 2300x1700mm. Oil. 2006

This composition took me more than two years. When starting a painting, different ideas come up and gradually one starts to stand up over the others. When we look at a pictorial composition, we only see the final result. During the creation process of a painting like this, however, multiple changes take place, either on the subject, the composition and the color. It takes hours thinking, watching, hesitating and undoing. It’s a hard and difficult coexistence in which the most complex thing is not the technique, but the creative process itself. The subconscious, constantly lurking, tries to impose itself over the conscious, all this through the technique, the drawing, the painting and, above all, the composition.

There is never only one single interpretation for a picture: when watching a painting, the observer interprets it according to their own personality, life experiences, education and culture of origin. The title came to my mind once it was finished: when starting a work, one never knows what it is going the be; it’s like a vital process, almost sentimental, when the work is finished.

Acrylic or plastic painting has advantages: its procedure is stable and it dries almost immediately, which provides total freedom.

I have used acrylic for more than thirty years and I consider my working process is totally original, especially regarding textures and glazing. I have achieved a unique work result with this formal procedure.
