Each artwork tells a unique tale, inviting the viewer on a whimsical journey of discovery and imagination. The intricate patterns, bold hues, and delicate strokes come together to create a visual spectacle that inspires and engages the senses. Absolutely amazing job! SIncerely, Marisol

Merci pour votre visite !
Diehl Mackey-Pyfer: Welcome aboard, Jésus!!!!!! I'm absolutely mad for your painting style. It's the kind of wall-to-wall action that I love. Buy as heck and in a good way. Thre is always something to see no matter how long you look at the picture!!!!!! Fish wearing lipstick and have human eyes is a nice insight. Love he negatives/positves things you do. Full points!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!!!
Dear Roberto Ferrero (Italia), thank you so much for your decision to include my painting "Conceiving Spring" in your private favorite collection. This artwork received the Popular Vote in March 2022 in "Spring Tradition Exhibition" sponsored by New York "People and Paintings Gallery".
I see your works as a jungle, urban jungle, marine jungle, full of eyes even if you can't see them, figures and shapes that compose, dialogue, know everything, just like nature knows everything.
