Leticia Bernadac

Classically Trained Contemporary Artist.
My artistic practice is grounded in classical principles of drawing, composition, and the study of the human figure while continuing evolving through experimentation with contemporary techniques and materials.

Working across portraiture, figurative painting, animals, landscapes, still life’s, and abstraction, I explore the expressive possibilities of color, form, and texture. I am particularly drawn to the character of a spontaneous brushstroke and the richness that emerges through multiple layers of paint.

Human expression, cultural diversity, nature, and the animal kingdom are recurring sources of inspiration. Each subject presents an opportunity to explore its individuality, movement, and emotional presence.

Whether working in oil, mixed media, printing making, or sculpture, my intention is to bring together the discipline of classical training and the freedom of contemporary expression, creating artwork with depth, character, and a distinctive visual language.
