Symphony at the Auditorium (Sinfonia en el Auditorio) Painting

I am a self-taught artist living in Spain. With a background and experience completely different from the artistic one, I began my artistic journey when I was around 50 years old in search of a way of escape and personal expression. After hours of trial-and-error and a tremendous effort, little by little the painting has led me to a fantastic world in which I can be completely free and explore my inner feelings. My daily session must have three main ingredients: the painting itself, good music and a cup of coffee. It is true that my paintings reflect my whole life, trying to capture on canvas the emotions that any subject produces in me. Normally, I work with several elements at the same time, whether they are abstract figures, a landscape or a portrait. When I start an art work, I don't really know where it is going to take me. It is the painting itself that shows me the path I have to follow. Depending on my mood, I choose to focus on one or another. What I value most in a painting is colour and this is why my main medium is oil painting. I believe that it is the best approach to achieve the most colorful and impactful piece of art and, moreover, to fill this world with hope. At the end of the day, my main goal is to convey my emotions to the viewers.
