Oil Pastel Paintings
| My paintings, my life what can I say. I love what I do, and strongly feel one of the most beautiful and undescribable medium when I use it..., oil pastels. Expressions, face, eyes, ages.. ... wonderful means of expression of feelings such as happiness, pain,uncertainty, hope, dreams ... To express feelings is what I look in each of my portraits, Indians, wildlife (deer , horses, flowers, etc).Sometimes they're the feelings of whom I'm painting and sometimes my own. I was born and raised in Chile, land of lakes and volcanos, narrow strip of land protected by the Pacific Ocean on one side and the Andes Mountains on the other. In 1987 I entered the School of Arts at the University of Concepcion in Chile, where I graduated with a BA in Education, major in Arts. My last year of school was decisive for me, as to achieve through art more than just an art piece but a means of communication, a way of expression. This is why I worked on trying and proving that art is highly important in Special Education. Color, lines, shapes, texture, all are concepts that mean a lot to me, they are the basics of my painting. |
