ATORRELLA

I am a Visual Artist with a demonstrated history in art and design education. I am skilled in Digital Matte Painting, Life Drawing, 3D Digital Rendering, Educational Assessment, Educational Consulting, and Curriculum Assessment. Strong Art professional skills with two Bachelor's Degree focused in Painting, Engraving, Drawing, Digital Art, Graphic Design from the University of Fine Arts.

I find inspiration almost everywhere, which has influenced my varied style, technique, and process. I create art because it has been my easier way of expressing myself. I'm an artist with academic training in a traditional European school. I can use different media such as oil, tempera, acrylic, and watercolor. Engraving and fine printing are other specialties I studied at the University of the Arts, including lithography, woodcut, linoleum, etching, aquatint, and burin.

For some, I'm a pioneer of Digital Art. Since 1987, I combine traditional art knowledge with different software, creative use of pixels, and the possibility of printing these images on any surface, including canvas. I focus on creating and exploring unlikely environments, which I share with my audience using the most advanced technology on the more traditional supports such as paper and canvas. I also really enjoy the field of design and illustration. The use of graphite, ink and wash has a unique appeal for me.

I can create classically using traditional media. I also make much contemporary digital art printed on traditional art paper or canvas. My motivation mainly comes from images generated with fractal geometry and the possibilities to explore these infinite universes. I've been creating art for 40 years. My favorite artist is Antoni Tapies, a Catalan artist credited with introducing the "matter abstract painting" into Spain. My heroes are Benoit Mandelbrot, Waclaw Sierpinski, Gaston Julia, all three mathematicians, geniuses, and inspirators of my art.

I connect with the art community through Professional networks and social media. My work is in USA, Finland, Cuba, Brazil, Germany, Canada, Argentina, and Online.

I wish to share the pleasure of exploring and contemplating these intense environments. The enjoyment of constantly getting inspiration around each element every time we immerse into these images.
