WHEN PAINTINGS ELEVATE REALISM TO VISUAL POETRY

Bare pleats and portraits full of expressiveness.

ANGEL RAMIRO SANCHEZ 2/3 – He was 14, when he began his apprenticeship with a realist painter known for his murals in churches. He revealed his artistic talent as a child, then at the age 19 moved to Italy to complete his artistic training, even using traditional techniques used by ancient masters. Among the most interesting developments of his expressive creativity is his confrontation with biblical texts. Even in scenes of biblical episodes, he values the representation of human emotions.

To achieve the psychological state of his subject, he prefers painting from life, through precision.

ANGEL RAMIRO SANCHEZ 3/3 – To tell a human story, he believes the artist must gather information from all five senses. Looking at one of his portraits, you find that the colors are intense, and the figures have an extremely realistic naturalness. In 2003 he had already become an appreciated painting teacher. His works are sought after by collectors from all over the world. By avoiding the possible trap of prosaic-photographic photography, he has shown, that what comes with fresh varnish in an abstract age can elevate realism to the level of poetry. He teaches in Florence during the winter and in summer he paints in New York and Venezuela. http://www.florenceacademyofart.com/index.php/en/workshop-us/alphaindex/r
