Description

Miguel Hernández Bastos employs a unique technique in his artworks, using pencil, charcoal, acrylic paint, and the unconventional medium of smoke from an oil lamp, which burns onto the canvas like pigment. This distinctive approach allows him to explore themes of metamorphosis and the fleeting essence of the human form, while also incorporating historical symbolism associated with the candle in Renaissance portraiture.

In Paisaje de Humo, a smoke landscape painting, Hernández Bastos employs the same technique of burning smoke onto canvas, resulting in a wistful depiction of a body of water enveloped by lush foliage. The smoke creates a dreamlike atmosphere, conjuring a nostalgic quality that evokes memories of distant landscapes.

In this smoke landscape painting Hernández Bastos presents the serene beauty of nature, inviting us into a tranquil and contemplative realm.

Framing not included.
