Yuni R. P is a young artist with solid professional training who currently lives and works in Havana, Cuba. His work is distinguished by a very personal pictorial language, developed almost exclusively through the use of the spatula, a tool with which he builds compositions of great visual power and marked expressiveness.

His painting is characterized by a rich impasto, loose strokes, and an intensely colorful palette, where light and movement constantly converse. In his 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 he addresses arise from an emotional connection with nature and the landscape: marine scenes, sails, fauna, flowers, and evocative cities form a pictorial universe filled with nostalgia and admiration for classical art. His works do not seek literal description, but the evocation of sensations, awakening intense feelings and latent memories in the viewer.

Yuni's paintings possess a frontal and enveloping presence; they are works that must be contemplated in person, as photography cannot fully capture the richness of the impasto, the depth of color, or the energy of the painterly gesture. The spatula allows him to build vibrant surfaces, with layers of paint that convey solidity, movement, and an almost tactile expressiveness.

His work is, in essence, a celebration of color, matter, and emotion: a painting that invites you to stop, observe, and feel.

This work is a dynamic seascape executed in oil technique, where bold and generous use of the spatula stands out. The style is framed within vigorous impressionism with hints of expressionism, characterized by short and rhythmic brushstrokes that capture the effervescence of sea foam and the tension of sails billowed by the wind. The color palette is exceptionally rich, contrasting the cool tones of the ocean with a dramatic sky in violets, oranges, and yellows that reflect masterfully on the water. The painter seeks to convey a sense of energy, freedom, and the harmonious struggle of man against the elements, using the diagonal of the sailboats to guide the gaze toward a setting sun that symbolizes both the end of a day and the promise of a new destination.
