"...Every
day differs from another. There are
continuos changes of light and shadow.
Through a fast working session one must try to convey
the rendering of a situation, the spirit of a place and relate it all to the
uniqueness of the moment."

...."In the studio, the freshness of the impression would surrender to the concept . The intent is to keep poorly outlined the idea of interpretation, allowing the pattern of colours to express to the viewer the "impact" of a scene."

I hardly ever return, to the same spot to finish or
continue a painting: everything needs to be conceived, painted and finished in
few given hours.

One man and collective exhibitions have been held invarious art galleries, historical sites, theaters, hotels,banks,etc.by art-dealers or by the artist personally.
..."A painting is always an interpretation, but having stated this, the research for the “visible concreteness of a significant moment” is for me the only exciting direction possible . The implication is that in the “open” all the prejudice settings of how we perceive the world are deeply questioned and colour seems to carry the chance to view thimgs in other possible ways...
While
working I may refer to different styles and use what I most like or may be
useful: impressionism, French or Italian; English and Dutch landscape traditions
just to mention a few. Also expressionist elements and even the more recent
texture experiences in painting may be implied for rendering the experience of a day,
of "those" hours and the place chosen (or encountered) for realizing the work.
I
have been described “Classical”, but I
know that the direct relation with the subjects, a modern colour sensitivity,
and the unevitable changes in the landscape itself, result in a mirrored reality
that consequently reflects our time.
It
is very satisfying to know that there is appreciation now in many countries.
Many people have acknowledged how my paintings have slightly modified or
sometimes reinforced their way of perceiving places, seasons and colours. I
believe that, after all, this may result in a contribution for a new sensitivity
for the world, and specially for Nature.
