In the wake begins a new stage, it's like a new reboot of life and we should be surprised by their character over time. Life as a necessity of awakening, a being born daily astonishingly unmatched life to other living beings because our attributes we thought the quality of the start in time, to look at life as the new venture. My techniques are often mixed, here I use the oil and resin as me help shape the color with realistic textures on the drawing (self-portrait). This procedure I call drawing by light reflection where the light is the raw material of the drawing is a technique where I apply light and shadow roughened by friction on a flat aluminum; lights and shadows are consciously altered in favor of changes in the value of gray in the figure. This technique have advantage from a need for a language to symbolize, express and abstracting my concept of time.

William Marquina was born in Mérida, Venezuela. Attracted by the works of great masters such as Picasso and Leonardo, at the age of 11 he participated in an outdoor Sunday painting workshop. After graduating in visual arts from the Universidad de Los Andes, he studied a master's degree in philosophy, followed by an unfinished doctorate, and was a short-term visual arts professor at the same university. From now on, William will pursue his passion for art by experimenting with different themes, techniques, styles and media. Disappointed by the unstable situation in his country, he emigrated to the city of Quito in 2019 where he currently lives and produces his works in the Oskan-huera painting studio, cloistered during the pandemic of 2020 and 2021, he will insist on his series Perceptions William's production has been experimentally versatile and challenges us with series characterized by the desire to search, study and complement the archaic and contemporary. His series are notable: Brillo, Picasso Copy, Matisse Copy, Da Vinci Copy and Aperceptions. In the latter, he highlights us in painting, the subjective complexity in the world of perceptions. In 2023 he exhibited his individual retrospective "Imbrications in painting" in the city of Quito; the International Painting exhibition at Casal Català Quito, 2021 and "Exhibition of Ecuadorian Painting" at the Mayor's Office of Quito, 2019. Other important individuals were: "Cartographies of the Terrestrial and Transterranean", Merida 2012; "Care. Path and Limit", 2007 and "Essences", 2007. Awarded the First Prize of Arts for University Students, in 2001.
