About the Artist
For more than fifty years, I have devoted myself to painting, guided by a deep love for the colors and rhythms of nature. My primary passion is oil painting, though watercolor has always been part of my artistic journey. I find endless inspiration in landscapes and flowers, while also exploring the human figure, marinas, and scenes that capture the spirit of place.
I divide my life between Medellín, Colombia, where I maintain my art gallery, and Florida, where I continue to expand my practice and connect with new communities of collectors and artists. My work often takes me outdoors, painting en plein air in California, Maryland, Maine, and along the Great Lakes. The changing light and shifting atmosphere of these regions fuel my creative process and keep my brush moving.
I am honored to be a member of the American Impressionist Society and Oil Painters of America. My education has been shaped by studying with many top American artists in workshops over the years, and I now have the joy of teaching others through my own workshops. Students join me for several weeks at a time, painting side by side, learning not only techniques but also the spirit of observation and perseverance that painting requires.
At its heart, my work is an invitation to pause, to see the world with fresh eyes, and to share in the beauty that nature so generously offers.
