Juan Estrella

I was born in 1978 in the Dominican Republic. I grew up with only pencil and paper available to me, which eventually emerged into my love for drawing. I began drawing at the age of four and portraits were particularly inspired by the people and the animals.

I am interested in art continued to progress at the age of 8. I began learning how to oil paint, early on, from Guillo Perez Academy of Art in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.

I received his Associate's Degree of Science in Graphic design from Tampa Technical Institute in Tampa, Florida in 2001. I worked in my own studio room. I had created my own orent oil paintings, plein air paintings, abstracts, and studio paintings. In addition, I had new experiences that taught me perspective, color theory and further developed artistic skills which later translated into my work with oil painting and acrylics painting.

In 2009, I had a new style that was my creative paintings.

My heart and soul are my paintings for beginning the people and the animals. It makes me feeling the inspirations by my arts.
