Miguel De La Espriella

Born in Caimito in 1947, a small town near the Caribbean coast, I grew up with the nature of the countryside and the colors that abounded there in the flora and fauna.

I moved around and worked a number of artistic jobs before I finally became a professional artist - over 4 decades ago now!

I have worked in oils mainly from around 1985 to 2012 as well as acrylics and occasionally other mediums. I have produced bronze sculptures as well as mixed media works.

I have looked to develop different styles and experimented in my creative journey - from naive art, through impressionism, magical realism and expressionist art as well as the action painting that i now present where I look to express the emotions I feel through the action and choice of colors in the artworks.
