Description from the seller
Sunset, 2025
Mixed media on canvas, 73 × 55 cm
Signed (bottom right)
Includes certificate of authenticity issued and signed by the artist
In “Sunset,” Jose Manuel Mayo Peña captures the exact moment when the day hands itself over to the fire. This work does not depict a sunset landscape: he feels it and transmits it in a state of pure emotion. The intense reds, oranges, and yellows explode with a force almost violent, as if light itself were burning before fading away.
Broad brushstrokes, streams of color, and splatters create a sense of constant movement and overflowing energy. The earthy background and the darker areas at the bottom contrast with the upper luminosity, generating an atmosphere of transition, of an ending and a rebirth at the same time. It is the moment when beauty and destruction meet.
This painting evokes deep feelings of passion, intensity, and melancholy. Color does not decorate: it burns, beats, and consumes. It conveys that universal sunset feeling: ephemeral beauty, the power of light that fades, and the emotion that arises when something ends. It is a work that speaks of the passage of time, the inner fire, and that strange peace that can be found in the chaos of color.
Mayo Peña achieves with “Sunset” a piece of great emotional charge and visual presence. It is not a quiet work; it is a piece that confronts, moves, and leaves a lasting mark. Ideal for spaces where one seeks art that is not only looked at, but felt.
A contemporary piece of high emotional impact, perfect for collectors who value expressiveness, color intensity, and the ability of an image to generate a nearly physical experience.

Seller's Story
Cuban Art Circle is an international group of approximately 20 artists, founded and represented by painter Cristian Mesa Velázquez.
United by a deep passion for painting and a serious commitment to artistic excellence, the members of the collective work from different parts of the world. While each artist maintains their own personal voice, all share a rigorous technical approach and absolute dedication to the pictorial medium.
Oil on canvas is the predominant technique, although other methods are explored to enrich the group’s visual language. The works are characterized by high standards of execution, exceptional care in the treatment of light, color, and texture, and a remarkable ability to convey emotion and depth through figure, symbol, and atmosphere.
The collective represents artists committed to high-level contemporary painting, where technical mastery is combined with a personal and contemporary vision. Their works have been presented at major international art fairs in Europe and are part of private collections across several continents.
Cuban Art Circle is a serious and professional platform dedicated to promoting superior quality painting, created to connect demanding artists with collectors who value rigor, passion, and pictorial excellence.

In “Sunset,” Jose Manuel Mayo Peña captures the exact moment when the day hands itself over to the fire. This work does not depict a sunset landscape: he feels it and transmits it in a state of pure emotion. The intense reds, oranges, and yellows explode with a force almost violent, as if light itself were burning before fading away.
Broad brushstrokes, streams of color, and splatters create a sense of constant movement and overflowing energy. The earthy background and the darker areas at the bottom contrast with the upper luminosity, generating an atmosphere of transition, of an ending and a rebirth at the same time. It is the moment when beauty and destruction meet.
This painting evokes deep feelings of passion, intensity, and melancholy. Color does not decorate: it burns, beats, and consumes. It conveys that universal sunset feeling: ephemeral beauty, the power of light that fades, and the emotion that arises when something ends. It is a work that speaks of the passage of time, the inner fire, and that strange peace that can be found in the chaos of color.
Mayo Peña achieves with “Sunset” a piece of great emotional charge and visual presence. It is not a quiet work; it is a piece that confronts, moves, and leaves a lasting mark. Ideal for spaces where one seeks art that is not only looked at, but felt.
A contemporary piece of high emotional impact, perfect for collectors who value expressiveness, color intensity, and the ability of an image to generate a nearly physical experience.

Seller's Story
Cuban Art Circle is an international group of approximately 20 artists, founded and represented by painter Cristian Mesa Velázquez.
United by a deep passion for painting and a serious commitment to artistic excellence, the members of the collective work from different parts of the world. While each artist maintains their own personal voice, all share a rigorous technical approach and absolute dedication to the pictorial medium.
Oil on canvas is the predominant technique, although other methods are explored to enrich the group’s visual language. The works are characterized by high standards of execution, exceptional care in the treatment of light, color, and texture, and a remarkable ability to convey emotion and depth through figure, symbol, and atmosphere.
The collective represents artists committed to high-level contemporary painting, where technical mastery is combined with a personal and contemporary vision. Their works have been presented at major international art fairs in Europe and are part of private collections across several continents.
Cuban Art Circle is a serious and professional platform dedicated to promoting superior quality painting, created to connect demanding artists with collectors who value rigor, passion, and pictorial excellence.
