Luis

LUIS is an artist who is not limited to any one genre, rather, he is a master at many. A true Renaissance man, he excels in multiple mediums, including figurative and abstract painting, found object mixed-media work, delicate shadowboxes, bronze figurative sculpture, and murals. His works are sometimes grim and sublime, both realistic and idealistic. The result is a profound statement of light and dark, life and death, and the role we play in it. He is best known for his realistic paintings of subjects (his friends) set in somewhat surreal circumstances, painted on his signature highly-textured canvases that resemble degraded stucco.  He can be commissioned for public art, and has created many murals for restaurants and notable public locations.
