I use representation of ordinary elements as symbols chosen from a psychological context thus
causing a sense of tension, intrigue and dialogue among them. When staging still
live compositions, my preference is to use objects arranged as if in altars or theatre, usually a premeditated set up
that enhances the feel of a silent essence; distorting or placing elements in unexpected areas or setting a juxta- position
statement of perceptions and experiences involved in the reading among them.
In intending to transfer the sensations left from reflections or
introspections, I maximize the use of personal painting methods of the classical oil on linen traditional techniques. I create
my own mixture of Flemish, Renascence and French methods, using layers of glazing wet and dry over impastos, giving a special
treatment to the textures of the objects, lights and shadows, by which the paintings achieve their three dimensional quality.
