Paco Roig

Watercolorist and Engineer
Attracted by watercolour since I was a child, I began to paint with various techniques, acrylic on wood and oil, especially industrial themes and participated in collective and individual exhibitions, mainly in Terrassa and in the Empordà. After a few years, I return to paper and watercolour.
Starting from the landscape with the intention of overcoming it, looking for a distance from the bucolic and idealized vision of the environment, I try to reflect on how it makes us smaller and situates us to the world.
To paint a horizon that we will never reach, I seek the maximum impact of color with a reduced palette.
I like to work with paper, either through water, brush, graffiti, collage with other techniques, sometimes engraving it or incorporating light through its transparency.
From this process, installations, watercolors of light and also the fabric of watercolors are born, seeking a contemporary approach to landscapes and horizons.

I trained with several watercolourists and also in drawing at the BCN Massana School and Illa School to then develop my own path.
