SHIPPING AND RETURNS


This portrait captures a moment of doubt and indecision, an intimate and significant instant. I chose to use a very simple and limited color palette to allow the expression to take center stage.

Carmen Rey

About the Artist

Carmen Rey

Spain

Born in Mataró, Barcelona, in 1971. A graduate in Chemistry, I came to painting in 2014 after a career in the scientific and pharmaceutical industry.

I work mainly with the human figure and the oil portrait, on linen, wood and paper, moving between close observation and passages where the paint dissolves into texture. I am currently developing "Trazos del Mañana" (Traces of Tomorrow), my first body of work conceived as a series, about the passage from an intuitive gaze to a conscious one.

My work is aimed at people who look for more than decoration in art: paintings that speak to them, that provoke questions, that keep them company. I think of each piece not only as an aesthetic object, but as a presence with a soul.

2nd Prize at the IV Illustrated Haiku Contest of the University of Salamanca (2025). Finalist in the III Francisco Pedraja Muñoz International Painting Prize, with exhibition in 2026, and selected for the ModPortrait Special Edition catalogues.

Here on Saatchi Art I show my series "Visions of the Portrait", "Intimacies" and part of "Internal Landscape".
