Yuniesky R. P is a young artist with solid professional training who currently lives and works in Havana, Cuba. His work stands out for a very personal pictorial language, developed almost exclusively through the use of the spatula, the tool with which he constructs compositions of great visual impact and marked expressiveness.

Their painting is characterized by a rich impasto, loose brushstrokes, and an intensely colorful palette, where light and movement constantly dialog. In its impressionist treatment, a clear influence of Joaquín Sorolla is perceived, especially in the way luminosity, dynamism, and the vibrancy of color are approached, always from a contemporary and deeply personal perspective.

The themes explored arise from an emotional connection with nature and the landscape: seascapes, sailing ships, fauna, flowers, and evocative cities form a pictorial universe rich with nostalgia and admiration for classical art. The works do not seek literal description, but the evocation of sensations, awakening in the viewer intense feelings and latent memories.

Yuni's paintings have a frontal and enveloping presence; they are works that must be observed in person, since photography cannot fully capture the richness of the impasto, the depth of color, or the energy of the pictorial gesture. The spatula allows her to build vibrant surfaces, with layers of paint that convey solidity, movement, and an almost tactile expressiveness. Her work is, in essence, a celebration of color, matter, and emotion: a painting that invites one to pause, observe, and feel.


This work is a masterful piece of luminous impressionism, where the artist uses oil painting to explore the refraction of light on matter. Through thick and decisive brushstrokes, the painter creates a dynamic contrast between the warmth of the yellows and oranges of the sunset and the depth of the blues and purples that dominate the lower plane. The use of paint is almost sculptural in the areas of brightness, making the sun's reflection on the water have a vibrant and almost blinding presence. What the author wishes to convey is a sense of guidance and infinite hope; the sailing boat, though small before the vastness of sky and sea, moves with determination toward the source of light, turning the scene into a metaphor of the human soul seeking its north or a state of illumination and transcendence.
