Rosa Maroto (1966) - Castillos en el aire

Linen canvas on a wooden frame.
The painting is part of the series "Cosas Imposibles" exhibited at Galerie Pierre Berna in Madrid in 2001, owned by the gallerist until 2011, the date on which I bought it from him.
Rosa Maroto (Madrid, 1966) is a graduate of the Faculty of Fine Arts at the Complutense University of Madrid,

During her forty-year artistic career, Rosa Maroto has explored abstraction, expressionism, and 'pop surrealism'. The artist shows a strong sense of color and a real mastery of drawing to depict a series of human figures whose appearance blends graffiti, comic books, cartoons, and surrealism.
