Gabriel Portoles Ascaso Art

Spanish, b. 1930
Huesca Pyrenees has been giving shape to what he studied at the Llotja School in Barcelona, ​​specifically drawing, and then the polychromy that he learned with Jordi Alumá. Over time it has been renewed, not only in the forms, which would be the most natural, but also in the materials, in the technical elements that it has used and that it uses, such as that specialty that it has made its own, tempering egg on board, an expressive mode that began in the 1960s and continues. He has exhibited frequently, both in our country and in France, Germany and the United States, where his technique is highly appreciated, with which he achieves clean, soft lighting surfaces, impeccably executed, with tones and transparencies that touch the genius, and, of course, very personal, although the drawing, perfect in the form of execution, is based on the classics of the great centuries of painting. Graceful, ethereal, almost spiritual female figures, with their slightly bluish flesh, powerful gazes, elegant nudes at times, ample clothing at others, and backgrounds with natural elements, flowers or oriental rhythms. His works have a peculiar baroque air, which is usually developed in successive superimpositions. He also stands out in some balanced still lifes, careful in their composition on different planes, which allows the color to be broken down in a very personal and almost unique way for this veteran artist. All this allows him to achieve a diction expressed with his own voice, sensitive lyricism and the good work of a master. His works are, without a doubt, instantly identifiable and unrepeatable, because there is only one Gabriel Portolés. Reaching environments of great sensitivity, as if the sun were penetrating through the walls of an old cathedral through the luminous and brightly colored glass. In these canvases, both the lyricism of a poet of brushes and the master technique of a master of the language of shapes and color stand out.

"Still Imagined" Oil painting

Located in Denver, CO

Todd Carpenter's (US based) "Still Imagined" is an oil painting that depicts a black and white landscape with leafless trees and saplings together in the dark Bio/artist statement: Todd Carpenter is a Los Angeles based artist who uses black and white paint to explore the perception of space and beauty. Carpenter's formal education is in science - he holds a MS in Neuroscience from UCSD and a BS in Psychobiology from UCLA - and he brings this background into service when making art. His paintings explore the mechanisms of perception and aesthetics, examining among other things how the depiction of light can impart realism and convey emotion. Like his paintings bridging art and science, Carpenter's career has similarly straddled the two fields, and he has taught subjects ranging from neuroscience and environmental science to photography and painting. Artist Statement As a painter, I am particularly interested in how the depiction of light contributes to our experience of paintings. Painting, as with any visual art, is obviously dependent on light. But painting can also have a more specific connection in that the accurate depiction of light is crucial for achieving realism. Realism in paintings largely arises from the portrayal of depth - perceiving a painting as being realistic is equivalent to seeing its subject as existing in more than just the two dimensions of the picture plane - and one of the mechanisms by which humans perceive depth is through lighting cues. Light creates features such as shading, shadow, and contrast that tell us about the three-dimensional arrangement of our surroundings, and artists often use these features to impart realism to paintings. Light also factors in to the emotional impact of paintings. The differential illumination of our surroundings can evoke different moods, as evidenced by the influence sunsets, candlelight, and darkness can have on us. Such effectssuggest that our perception of light could be tied to primitive instincts, with light signaling factors such as shelter, nightfall, and warmth, which were once crucial for survival. The depiction of light in paintings...
