Jose Garcia Legarda

Jose Is a self-taught contemporary abstract painter from Lima, Peru (South America). Working with acrylic paints and traditional methods, he creates textures, movement and irregular shapes by using strong-vivid colors. He gives his images patterns and textures that fully express his artistic creativity. The form, color, and textures of his artwork send images of emotions that can be interpreted through the simplest forms. I begin an abstract painting quickly and it becomes more detailed as the composition starts to shape itself.  José finds inspiration for his work in music which gives him the freedom to express his imagination through his paintings.
