About the artwork

This painting shows an old fisherman with downcast gaze, cloaked in deep blue-green hues. The coarse brushstrokes emphasise his long beard and weathered features. The atmosphere is mysterious and contemplative, as if he is musing back to the seas he sailed. The colours give a cool but soothing feeling, perfect for lovers of maritime tradition and silence. This work fits beautifully into interiors with a nautical, industrial or natural character. Ideal for those with a passion for the sea, fishing villages or the free outdoors. It exudes calmness, wisdom and connection with nature. A powerful symbol for those who love authenticity, adventure and the poetry of water.

People have always intrigued me in all their diversity, strength and vulnerability. My travels to countries like Africa, Bali, Australia, Dubai and Nepal, among others, have also left a lasting impression. Every face I create carries something from that journey: a memory, an emotion, a story. Encounters with other cultures and customs have broadened my outlook and enriched my heart. Those experiences are the source of inspiration for this portrait, and for all the others.

The basis of this work was created using Artificial Intelligence (AI), which acted as a digital sketch assistant. The painting was brought to life with thick layers of acrylic paint, so that the portrait really seems to jump off the canvas.
