Moon Over the Lake, Original Painting

2023

Artist Comments
Artist Fernando Garcia features a view of a moonlit seascape with a contemporary approach. He expresses a palpable sensation of calm with soft, gleaming hues. The piece embodies the moon's power over our emotions—compelling us to be introspective and to meditate. Fernando uses the reflection of light on the water to capture the atmosphere of the magical evening.

About the Artist
Fernando Garcia creates jazz-like musicality and urban energy though his operatic abstract paintings. Fernando, though partially deaf himself, comes from a family of musicians; so, painting has become the expression of his innate musical spirit. The shapes, colors, and forms have an improvisational and jazz-like element. Even the scrawling, dark linework resembles sheet music. In each composition, he deconstructs the landscape and pares down objects to their simplest forms. The arrangements of these forms have a calculated sense of organization that models urban planning. The methodically balanced picture planes give the sense that the compositions do not exist in a single way, but rather as symphonies of evolution that change and unfold over time.
