Through mixed media, each painting becomes a visual reflection of inner experiences, emotions, and the search for meaning.

Welcome to my website

I am Alberto Padilla. From my studio in San José del Cabo, Baja California Sur, Mexico I create paintings in serveral medias. Eager to discover the essence of all the forms, the painting frees me and gives form and color to my thoughts. My main thematics are faces, the human body and animals, because they are so expressive, mobile and alive, combining them generally with organic elements. This represents one part of my subconscious, letting my dreamlike side explore. I delight with its beauty and seduction. I paint directly on the surface without a preliminary sketch without knowing what the end result will be.

A Distinguished Career

Artist

I’m originally from El Fuerte, Sinaloa, México and live I live in San José del Cabo, BCS.,I’m member and coordinator of the “Jardín del Arte, Los Cabos”. I’ve participated in individual and group exhibitions both in México and abroad, my favourite tecnique is mixed media, my paintings are kind of diary record of emotions, dreams, whose are very personal to me. In my work, I look for the relationships between what is real and trascendental, metaphysical. Painting is my passion, I describe it is kind of a meditation, an emotional and spiritual cleansing. I say that it lives deep inside me far beyond the consciouness, and enlightens me to know myself and others better.
