Jorge’s most recent paintings are influenced by the brilliant light, colorful sunsets, earth tones and ancient architecture of the American Southwest, where he is a part-time resident. “I find inspiration in the surrounding mountains, landscape and huge horizons in my backyard, blending it all by juxtaposing imagery and presenting a distinctly contemporary vision. The paintings appear to be simple, minimal constructions of horizontal bands with often undulating vertical lines depicting mountains shapes, rivers, coyote fences and attempting to induce emotions and reflection or a meditative state through the use color. I consider my work visual conversations about life choices, overcoming challenges and the meaning of spirit.”
