Just stumbled across these...beautiful little paintings. I love how you captured the feeling of the architecture. There is a lot of atmosphere in these. Would love to see more ...

Carlos,

I always enjoy the juxtaposition of old and new in your work. In fact there is a touch of humor in it. From your paintings I would guess that you have a good sense of humor that is not obvious at first meeting. Whether that's actually true, I have no idea!

I love the dark doorways, and in the first one, I especially love the way you can see into the interior space. It gives the painting depth, mystery, and also a secondary focal point.

Hi to all,

Also culled from various photos and "recomposed" and "distilled" on the panel.

Thanks for your response Allan. It is exactly what I want to achieve in this little series: atmosphere and body gesture/language. Aside from the fact that I derive pure pleasure out of painting them.

You will be very welcome. It would be an honour to paint alongside you.
