:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Artist biography:
Félix Martín (Granada, 1955) is a Spanish landscape painter whose work stands out for its mastery in capturing the blinding light of the south, the freshness of Andalusian courtyards, and the lyricism of Mediterranean gardens through a markedly post-impressionist language.
Style and Artistic Characteristics:
Martín’s style is characterized by chromatic lyricism and vibrant execution that transforms everyday corners into poetic refuges of light and vegetation:
• Filtered light and contrasts: His great obsession is the behavior of sunlight passing through the crowns of trees. He is a master at creating "sun spots" of gold on the ground, which contrast with violet, mauve and very intense bluish shadows, lending a warm, summery atmosphere.
• Impasto, expressive brushwork: He uses an oil-on-canvas technique with loose, short strokes rich in body (often applying oil with a spatula). He does not seek defined lines, but the vibration of color so that the eye of the viewer reconstructs the scene.
• Overabundant nature: His compositions integrate the typical whitewashed Andalusian architecture with lush vegetation. He stands out for his ability to paint flowers (such as geraniums, bougainvillea, and daisies) not individually, but as abstract masses of living color that splatter the canvas with dynamism.
