Description from the seller
Sunset, 2025
Mixed media on canvas, 73 × 55 cm
Signed (lower right)
Includes certificate of authenticity issued and signed by the artist
In “Sunset,” Jose Manuel Mayo Peña captures the exact moment when the day surrenders to fire. This piece does not depict a sunset landscape: he feels it and transmits it in a pure state. The intense reds, oranges and yellows explode with a force almost violent, as if the light itself were burning before disappearing.
Broad brushstrokes, streams of color, and splashes 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, an ending and a rebirth at the same time. It is the instant when beauty and destruction meet.
This painting evokes deep feelings of passion, intensity and melancholy. Color here does not decorate: it burns, throbs, and consumes. It conveys that universal sunset sensation: the ephemeral beauty, the strength of light fading, and the emotion that arises when something ends. It is a work that speaks of the passing of time, 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 speaks to you, moves you, and leaves a lasting mark. Ideal for spaces where you seek art that is not only looked at but felt.
A contemporary piece of high emotional impact, perfect for collectors who value expressive power, 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 surrenders to fire. This piece does not depict a sunset landscape: he feels it and transmits it in a pure state. The intense reds, oranges and yellows explode with a force almost violent, as if the light itself were burning before disappearing.
Broad brushstrokes, streams of color, and splashes 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, an ending and a rebirth at the same time. It is the instant when beauty and destruction meet.
This painting evokes deep feelings of passion, intensity and melancholy. Color here does not decorate: it burns, throbs, and consumes. It conveys that universal sunset sensation: the ephemeral beauty, the strength of light fading, and the emotion that arises when something ends. It is a work that speaks of the passing of time, 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 speaks to you, moves you, and leaves a lasting mark. Ideal for spaces where you seek art that is not only looked at but felt.
A contemporary piece of high emotional impact, perfect for collectors who value expressive power, 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.
