My works are mostly oils on canvas, but I also work in acrylics and pastels. A sincere and passionate painting celebrates life in all its different incarnations. My subjects are typically abstracted natural forms, landscapes, human figures, and still lifes that have their foundation in a perception of reality. I find that I am attracted to various objects, which I feel express something to me. These objects then take on different shades, colors, and forms as I allow my self-expression to influence my painting.

Through my paintings, I show the Andalusian countryside, as this is what my eyes (and my heart) are full of. The layers, the transparency, and structures inside the forms drive me forward, painting the light and the darkness, and the intensity of the color. Hues are intentionally pushed completely to their limit, where they get to a perceptual breaking point. It feels like I should have to hold my breath so that it should not happen, but it happens. The colors explode. Then comes the storm, followed by a deep silence, long shadows, melancholy, and maybe, a quest for mercy.

Oscillating between techniques in the past has led me to combine traditional art with more modern techniques, creating the mixed media found today in my artwork. Art being the freedom of expression of the soul, I hope to express my profound and intense nature by the contrasts and intensity of my colors. I wish to let transpire femininity and softness through the emotions created by my subjects. Hopefully, the beauty and harmony evoked will permit the viewers to connect to their inner selves, creating this magical moment of being touched by a painting.   Enjoy!
