I would call my art "realistic symbolism" because I love to express my emotions and thoughts through real objects, which mean the same thing in many cultures, so that more people on our planet can understand what I want to express with my works. There is a lot to tell about the world we live in and I hope that the world I dream of can exist one day, where we love and respect each other and all living things.

At first glance, one might think that the colour is applied in quick, frenetic strokes, but it is quite the opposite. Antoine works on canvas, rationalising each brushstroke, taking distance and continuing the process. His creations are true to his nature: energetic, but at the same time balanced. […] In the present, Basquiat and bad painting emerge in the somewhat swirling form of the brushstroke, in the way in which figuration is almost non-existent, where a taste for abstract figuration and the use of diverse frames that make his compositions very noteworthy by proposing other perspectives of the central motifs is also evident.

From 1990 to 2000 I explored working with watercolour and oil painting. Figurative works, landscapes and still lifes. Then I discovered acrylic, which I use to this day, but abstraction has been imposed on me since 2018. By using acrylic and inks on my canvases, their fusion creates amazing graphics. I therefore invite visitors during my exhibitions to free their imagination by discovering my paintings and to share their feelings. It is a moment of sharing that is essential. I have been painting for years, it is fundamental for me, I am guided by my emotions... As an artist I hope to embody a certain idea of ​​freedom of expression, and I wish to evolve and always share reflections with the public.

You hardly know who I am; I write, I paint since I was a child, today I do it in the silence of the mountain, surrounded by animals. I know, they drink words of love; I dispense the nectar. That a man cries or is sensitive provokes rejection, it is annoying. I am one of them; damned adrenaline. In us, gentleness is mannered and corny, almost despicable; to be strong is a bastion of the chosen, a vital skill to which few of us have access to. In love with sport and vegan, I have published several books, and I am a crazy painter, self-taught who loves the forest, and the colour aquamarine blue.

“The landscape in my work is intended to reflect, in random ways, on the interpretation of my surroundings; marked by the various issues of housing and the need for retreat and shelter, and also the increasingly growing realities around the world caused by the urgent search for a decent habitat...”

His goal is to express a feeling, an experience with a palette of colors that can also make people laugh and cry, speak without speaking and connect with those minds that are willing to listen with the power of the eyes. Always tremble or overcome before a blank canvas, which invites doubt, emptiness or the feelings of others; the materialization of the immaterial. Gustav comments that it has always been necessary to have an open mind to the different forms of expression of art, to synesthesia and knowledge in general, without losing sight of the new artistic trends that are emerging at every moment (Ambientes magazine, No. 119 / 2019).

Creativity is like another world, the world that you draw on paper or canvas by adding colors that you choose yourself. Sometimes, this world is so secret that no one but you can solve it. […] Art is my reason to live and I always make sure that my creation comes from the heart…

In “Antelope Canyon”, there are endless possibilities for artistic compositions. That image is a study of how light sculpts spaces of texture and color into three dimensional layers captured in a two dimensional medium. With his photographs, he wants you to feel what he sees. His passion is to tell visual stories, one frame at a time. More painter than documentarian, the work hopes to showcase an impressionist approach...a type of optical painting. His grouping of images by their common connection to our earth - water, desert, trees and geology, not simply by location - is an expression of his sincere understanding and respect for our world. His artful capture of moments of light reveals an insight into our environment that only the perceptive observer can share (Mark Berndt, photographer, Santa Fe, New Mexico, United States, 2024).

I’m a young artist. My work, and mainly its content, is to paint expression, pain, fear, despair, depression... I want to create an impression and emotion in people. How to understand the psychological state. I put myself in every work and what kind of mental state I am in. Every day I did something to get closer to my dream of being an artist and creating, but it's not really a dream, it's my lifestyle. [...] Because for me, creating work is not about making and selling; it's something more. I want to leave a message for people to know that art, more than creating and selling, has the value of evoking some emotion in them, be it good or bad. The only thing that fulfils me is to actively create. I implemented the artistic vision to give purpose and meaning to art.

Nature has a profound influence on me and every time I meet with myself, I am with my own self. My canvas contains the language of acrylic and pastel with which I speak, conveying my thoughts and emotions. The depth of my paintings, with their sober and textured use of colour, lies in this emotionality rather than in the physicality of the visuals. Beauty may indeed be superficial, but the meaning lies elsewhere, more rooted in the heart and mind. When the viewer connects with the painting, he also joins in this conversation and shares its joy.
