The warmth of Juan A. Lleras, native Bogota, emanates from the vividness and complexity of his paintings. Pure hues are consistent in their vibrancy, regardless of the subject. Mr. Lleras’ early creation of his own mineral-pigmented paint colors established his sense of shade depth and clarity, while the jeweled tones are enhanced by placement and a perfect, restrained use of black and white. His personal goal of acquiring “a unique language of artistic expression through color and light” has definitely been met. Such expert utilization, when added to Juan Lleras' themes, result in mesmerizing and expressive interpretation.

With an early influence by native legends, Mr. Lleras’ work successfully blends a touch of the magical with a cultural perception of South America. He reflects his own perception of reality in dark boxes of forms which possess universal sensations, images, and feelings. A half dozen first place awards, nine art shows, and two permanent exhibitions validate the appeal and artistry of Juan A. Lleras.
