At the waterfall

30 x 21 cm acrylics on canvas wood frame varnished, ready to hang Inspired from Van Gogh`s 'Stary Night', this small painting is meant to transport you into a world not quite so real as the one we live in. It has something of the nature of a dream. The raw and vivid colours make it somewhat unfamiliar from what we normaly experience in day-to-day life. Maybe you want such a door to escape through. Maybe it beckons you with something you cannot quite put your finger on. No need to.

A dreamer in a dream world

102 x 76 cm oils on canvas float-in wood frame, painted black varnished, ready to hang 'A dreamer in a dream world' represents the nature of universal consciousness and the place of the individual within it. A fundamental theme that defines the artwork is that of change, hinting at the ephemeral and fleeting nature of reality, with its creator mingled within it.

From behind the mountain

Singularity

80 x 80 cm oils on canvas varnished, ready to hang If metaphysicians and theorists are correct, all that we see sprung from a single point. This is surrounded by nothingness, blurred nuances that express the vastness of the unknown. Maybe our entire Universe is a singularity waiting to explode and create a new world.

Freedom from the known

60 x 80 cm oils on canvas not stretched Freedom is not a quality that someone or something can give or take from us. We do it to ourselves; we do it when we choose to atach or detach from an image of what we think freedom is. Our biggest burden is our own thoughts, beliefs & identity; because through them we shape our reality and decide what is good and what is wrong. Focusing on our mind, we forget our soul; and HE is screaming to be heard, to be given a vote in the matter; and he suffers.

Flowing into reality

60 cm diameter, acrylics on canvas Existence flows on the waves of time and space, creating this mesmerizing dance of being and not being, of human and non-human, visible and invisible. This flow of life I tried to immortalize in this painting, with Sky melting into Earth and creating this soup of individuality.

Vivid dream

60 x 60 cm, acrylics on canvas, framed With big admiration in mind for Van Gogh, him being one of the very first contacts that I had with the art world long before I started painting, automatically becoming one of the role models that I have for this creative skill, I ventured to incorporate his style in my vision of the world.

What is actually taking place when we say ‘I am’ or when we look around and see a world of infinite capacity?

There is a marvelous thing indeed that we are alive on this Earth and that we get to experience life as human beings.

In the black of night.jpg

40 x 50 cm, oils on canvas, not available, framed The contrast between the known, our planet and its landscapes, and the unknown, the Universe all around Earth, is represented through colors. Something that becomes known to us starts slowly to loose its mystery, similar to a magician`s trick; while the unknown is still full of possibilities and our mind can run havoc.

Resolution

80 x 80 cm, oils on canvas, not available How many a time did man consider his stuborness a virtue? Too many I would say and way too confident of it also. If one could let go of one`s decisions and ambitions, maybe a little life would pierce one`s tower of solitude and all that does not matter would crumble away.

Void

40 x 30 cm, acrylics on canvas, not available Everything around us is mostly comprised of space. Even our bodies and the reality we see and consider as material, are but atoms kept together by strange forces. The colors that abashes one are an illusion created by light; so why wouldn`t all material things be just another illusion? Void reminds me of our lack of knowledge and the vastness of the Universe; every small dot is a Sun if not a agalaxy; a good example of how intricate All is.

Clar de Luna

60 x 50 cm, acrylics on canvas, not available For many a time the Moon, full of melancholy and wonder, was found in the hearts of artists and writers as their creations` motif. The reflection of the celestial object isa represenntation of man (water being a wordly substance) as a mirror for all the beauty the Universe has to offer. Being distorted it shows the flaws of men; but it can reach perfection if we could just 'calm our waters'.
