| Artist: Marcio Diaz
I was born in a small farming community in northern Nicaragua. My experiences as a child growing up in a rural environment gave me an awareness of its natural beauty and lifestyles that I continue to cultivate today through my art. I am passionate about using bold, vibrant, rich colors in my paintings. When I paint I start out spreading a gamut of colors over the canvas with a palette knife, then add many more layers of paint in the form of bubbles, reinforcing them with circles of color to harmonize the composition. “Bubblelism”, as I call this technique, was conceptually developed since I moved to the Pacific Northwest. |
