"Hi, I'm Alejandro Pascual.
Thank you for visiting.
I draw scenes from my everyday life, looking for beauty in the small things."
Alejandro Pascual is an artist from Barcelona who, after living in the UK for more than twelve years, has recently moved to Copenhagen. Alejandro completed a Master of Arts in Production and Research at the University of Barcelona in 2011. Drawing has been a fundamental part of his work, creating a particularly recognisable style. His drawings tend to distort and exaggerate scenes from his everyday life.
He works with coloured pencils on paper, combining energetic and delicate lines with vibrant colours. Alejandro draws things in front of him constantly, like ordinary objects, taking something simple and making it into something else, something more. The challenge is to use that reality without merely illustrating it.
His creative process is dynamic, with many drawings in progress at any given time. Also, he enjoys drawing the human figure and making sketches of his friends.
He has participated in several Group Shows in London, Berlin and Barcelona. He has also been selected for various art prizes and competitions, including the Barcelona Ynglada-Guillot Drawing Prize (2007), the London VIA Art Prize ...
