He develops various pictorial disciplines (oil, nib, watercolor, ...), highlighting in her latest works a preference for watercolor,

Light is the fundamental essence in the artist's work, the resource of contrasts, the play of light and shadow, the empty nocturnes

Works with an intimate and personal character where customs and roots are often present, such as the past of the world of raisins and the process of l'escaldà. As Sorolla already did, Bisquert, with his very personal intimacy that characterizes him, offers traditional scenes from the passing past as well as the riuraus become the excuse to recover that memory, while offering an interesting game of light contrasts.

The night instills silence, peace and calm, and under the illumination of its streets they also offer a beauty that takes us to the historical past of Xàbia. Those nocturnes by Bisquert are a hallmark of his work carried out in a very personal and authentic way

"Although the images already arouse all these feelings, the impact of seeing his work live leaves no one indifferent, they evoke emotions of tranquility and silence, they are almost a meditative and relaxing experience by transmitting rest "(David Gutierrez Pulido, historian of art and expert in the work of Sorolla"
