ABOUT THE ARTWORK

I started painting Swimmers to awake in you the willingness to fight restlessly and make your dream come true. Choose your attitude and your direction in life, and become that swimmer that goes against the grain, no matter what people expect from you, no matter what it takes. Just trust in yourself, as you have never done before and fight for your dream. My name is Ruben and I am a 100% self-taught painter. I started painting after deciding by seeing various artists on Instagram, that I wanted to retire as a painter. This happened one day in August 2017 while on vacation at the beach and shortly after finishing my first Ironman triathlon on the island of Lanzarote in the Canary Islands. I like to think that what I paint is a metaphor for life: the sea water behaves like life, because with its currents it displaces us, sometimes helping us and often not, but we must not stop stroking strongly in the direction of what we are looking for. I usually paint creative and abstract seabed’s or real seas and use water-based enamel on wood and epoxy resin. I am glad to accept commission works with the creativity and size that you prefer, and I use all kinds of colors: blue, white, green, red, pink, gray, yellow, orange, and even silver and gold.

Ruben Abstract is an artist with roots in both Madrid and the Canary Islands, blending the city's vibrant energy with the islands' tranquillity. ​ Initially known for his first collection, Swimmers, he is now celebrated for his UnderWater collection, a body of work that perfectly captures his current moment and his aspiration to further establish himself in the contemporary art world. ​ Ruben is self-taught, developing his skills through trial, error, and close observation. He loves the creative process, enjoying the evolution of his art as he uncovers new insights without outside guidance. ​ Ruben’s studio is in the heart of Madrid, where he also resides, and if you want to catch a glimpse of him, head to Retiro Park early in the morning, where he’s often found running. His journey continues to push the boundaries of Epoxy Resin Abstract Fine Art, revealing layers of depth and meaning.
