Left Around - Bear Seating on Wooden Chair in Beatiful Landscape Painting

This painting is rolled for easy storage and shipment, wooden stretcher bars are raped together. Re-stretching the painting can be done by any professional framer art restorer or Painter familiar with the process. Chaval constructs his images from a purely pictorial perspective, for painting is his only tool and resource to build his images and display his poetry: figures, landscape, and mood created with only brushes and color; in his work, even spills and blank spaces are eloquent, and they serve a good faith narrative and aesthetic. Light is also key, and the artist always portrays it as ideal, almost apocryphal: a light of dusk, flat, melancholic, the light that makes everything look golden and a bit more beautiful, precisely because it’s about to fade into darkness. Chaval prefers the unnerving, sardonic, subtly off-centered, in the midst of a reality that, while perfect, lurks menacing. Mariano Soto - Art Historian
