As an intuitive emotional and very sensitive person i find in abstract expressionism the most profound and deep form to express myself. For me abstract expressionism is the most primordial, primitive, intrinsic, genuine, original form of art.
"Essence" is one of 18 paintings of Synapse serie, i call it "Synapses between sky and earth", it may take some months or just a few days i never can tell for sure, it starts by mentally projecting colour contrasts, sizes, then comes the earth part, it's the first contact with the canvas with acrylic, it´s a more rational and quiet part, a preparation for sky, the dripping sessions, the abstract expressionism, it all culminate on an emotional, intense, vibrant, unique and passionate painting that will bring good vibes to any hall or room.
Pure lyric abstractionist painting, extremely beautiful and made by me Luís Bastos, one of a kind, original and genuine.
Large scale piece, i'll ship it on a wooden crate, ready to hang, gallery wrapped stretched on a supported wooden frame, with hooks on the back. I sign my paintings on the back but i can sign them also on the front by request. Authenticity certificate included. Shipping in 5 days.

Luís Bastos, born in Elvas on March 2, 1975 and currently residing in the charming village of Sesimbra since his early days, is a notable Portuguese artist whose works transcend the conventional boundaries of art. His preferred themes revolve around depth psychology and philosophy, where art manifests itself as an extension of the human soul.
Gifted with a unique talent for painting and drawing since childhood, the artist faced notable challenges during his youth. The initial influence of a professor whose authoritarian and traumatizing characteristics, combined with social and cultural adversities, left an indelible mark on his academic journey, thus determining his ability to fully explore his talent in this context.
Today, almost 50 years old, the artist reflects maturely on how these experiences conditioned his relationship with art and his professional practice.
In 2018, as an act of liberation from a troubled life, marked by emotional and professional turmoil, Luís Bastos found a transformative escape in art. A marital separation, permeated by a depressive emotional state, gave way to a new phase of self-discovery and artistic expression. He decides to invest professionally in his passion and rents a store where he immerses himself intensely in artistic creation. His work, which excels in a unique magic, has won admirers not only nationally, but also internationally, with collectors in the USA, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Australia, Canada, Germany, Austria, Denmark, Spain, Italy, among other countries.
Luís Bastos states with conviction that art not only transformed his life, but also represents the beginning of a journey that aims to recreate not only what is visible, but, above all, what one feels, therefore, as he poignantly puts it : "The essential is invisible to the eyes."
