About the Item
Green Spheres presents a dreamlike scene where three floating green spheres emerge within a space dominated by a dense, earthy texture, reminiscent of a luminous brick tone. A fourth sphere, more enigmatic, remains in the shadowed background, almost hidden, rendered in black. The composition suggests a subtle but continuous movement, as if the spheres are advancing toward a blurred column rising at the top center of the canvas. This column is crowned with a classical capital, upon which two rampant lions stand—heraldic figures that introduce a symbolic and mysterious dimension to the scene.
The overall atmosphere is one of quiet surrealism, almost ceremonial. The spatial arrangement defies traditional logic: to float, to move, to emerge—these are the verbs that dominate the visual reading. The background shifts from black to a reddish tone, reinforcing the duality between the hidden and the revealed. The work invites the viewer into a universe suspended between the symbolic and the imaginary, where physical laws seem to dissolve.

Born in Madrid, Spain, he pursued Interior Design studies but his aptitude for painting led him to focus on this art form. In 1986, he joined the Circulo de Bellas Artes in Madrid, where he spent several years drawing and painting figures from life. In 1989, he became a copyist of Art Works at the National Prado Museum in Madrid, a role he continued for several more years. He took painting courses with Daniel Quintero and Eduardo Úrculo, and engraving courses at the National Mint of Madrid with José Hernández, Daniel Gil, Paco Mora, and Luis Cabrera. He has held solo and group exhibitions in various national and international galleries. He has been selected for numerous national competitions and has won several awards, including the 2nd Prize at the Caballeros de Yuste, finalist in the VIII Laura Otero, Honorary Medal at Sotillo de la Adrada, 5th Prize at the XVIII Antequera in Málaga, Honorary Medal at the XXII López-Villaseñor, XLII Antonio López Painting and Drawing Competition in Tomelloso, Ciudad Real, and First Prize in Small Format Painting at AGORA96 in Cádiz. He was a finalist in the Ynglada-Guillot Foundation Drawing Competition in Barcelona. His most recent selections include Daimiel and Virgen de las Viñas 2022, Laura Otero (finalist), and Valdepeñas 2023. In 2018, he was selected to exhibit at the Art Revolution Taipei International Art Fair and at the X-Power Gallery in Taipei.
