Spanish artist Juan Luis Fernandez defines his creative process as being based on three key elements: the exploration of the subconscious, improvisation, and serendipity. Inspired by Basquiat and Antoni Tapies, he finds beauty in the cracked walls of a facade, the ruins of a building and in a simple painted line. A former graphic designer who studied Art History at the University of Oviedo in Spain, Fernandez paints onto unstretched canvases, sometimes directly on the floor. His work is quickly attracting the attention of art lovers and collectors in Spain and beyond.

One Final Note: There are no guarantees when it comes to buying art and you should always feel happy with what you’re buying as it may be on your walls for a pleasurably long time. But if you are interested in the investment side of buying art then acquiring works by emerging artists is a great way to begin. We hope you enjoy our selection.
