Mauricio Palma is a Guatemalan artist born in 1982, artist with a distinctive blend of Impressionist and Expressionist styles. He began his artistic journey as a self-taught artist and later studied under the guidance of esteemed Guatemalan artist Ernesto Boeshe. In addition to being an artist, Palma is also a psychologist, and his knowledge in this field deeply influences his work, allowing him to explore human emotions and mental states through his paintings. His art is characterized by vibrant colors, fluid brushstrokes, and a strong sense of movement. The themes he explores include still lifes, urban landscapes, scenes from nature, portraits, and music-related subjects, all rendered with a dreamlike quality that invites viewers to immerse themselves in the scene. His unique fusion of art and psychology offers a fresh perspective on the human experience, positioning him as an emerging artist in the art world.
