Antonio Murado

b. 1964, Spain. Lives in USA

Antonio Murado explores history and landscape in his emotive paintings. An immensely versatile artist with broad technical skill, his recent works have been deeply harmonious in their subtlety. By blowing liquid paint across pale, semitransparent backgrounds, the blown paint creates formations akin to flower petals that seemingly float across his canvases, creating an ethereal sensation of serenity.
