(SOLD) Tangled Up In Green

Happy to announce that Tangled Up In Green has been SOLD to a collector via the always amazing online gallery SaatchiArt!

“Tangled Up in Green,” an original abstract diptych painting by the established artist Nestor Toro, a creator whose work captures the wild, intricate beauty of nature. Measuring an impressive 48 x 36 x 1.5 inches overall, this piece comprises two canvases, each 24 x 36 x 1.5 inches, offering a harmonious and expansive addition to any collector’s collection, perfect for creating a striking visual impact.

Nestor Toro’s style in this diptych embodies the vibrant chaos of abstract expressionism, drawing inspiration from the energetic splatters of Jackson Pollock and the intricate layering of Gerhard Richter. The composition across both panels features a dense network of splattered lines and drips, creating a textured surface that evokes the tangled beauty of a verdant wilderness. This technique invites viewers to immerse themselves in the painting’s intricate rhythm, as if stepping into a lush, overgrown landscape where colors and forms intertwine, with the dual canvases enhancing the sense of depth and continuity.

The color palette is a rich celebration of green’s many dimensions, anchored by a deep teal background that suggests the cool depths of a forest or a serene aquatic scene, providing a grounding foundation across both panels. This base is enlivened by a vibrant array of greens, ranging from bright lime to olive and emerald, evoking the dense foliage of a tangled wilderness.

Subtle accents of yellow and white punctuate the composition, hinting at sunlight filtering through leaves or delicate blossoms, while blue and purple hues add a mystical depth, suggesting shadows and hidden corners. Black and gray lines weave through the canvas, enhancing the sense of entanglement, and occasional flecks of pink and gold introduce a luminous sparkle, creating a harmonious yet wild interplay of color that flows seamlessly between the two panels.

“Tangled Up in Green” by Nestor Toro is more than a painting—it’s an opportunity to own a diptych that captures the enchanting complexity of nature through abstract artistry. Ideal for a spacious living area, a vibrant office, or a curated gallery wall, this piece promises to spark conversation and inspire a deep connection to the natural world.

Happy to share that my work Primal Hesitation “making a decision” has been sold by Singulart online gallery and will soon be heading to a collector in Spain. The work is 16 x 20 inches and acrylic on canvas.

Delve into the raw intensity of “Primal Hesitation (Making A Decision),” an original abstract painting measuring 16 x 20 inches, crafted by the visionary artist Nestor Toro. This compelling piece captures the tension and instinctual pause of primal forces, offering a striking addition for collectors seeking to infuse their space with bold emotion and artistic depth.

Created with fluid acrylics, the painting pulses with a vivid, primal palette that evokes the untamed wilderness. Dominant greens and yellows form a lush, vibrant base, suggesting the wild growth of nature, while bold reds and pinks slash through like bursts of passion or danger. Subtle oranges and purples add complexity, hinting at the mystery of instinct, with blacks and whites providing contrast and texture, enhancing the sense of movement and conflict. The colors layer in dynamic, vertical strokes and textured drips, creating a rich, almost tactile surface that invites viewers to feel the hesitation within.

Stylistically, “Primal Hesitation” embodies abstract expressionism, with gestural, energetic movements that reflect Nestor Toro’s exploration of primal emotions and natural rhythms. Inspired by the chaotic beauty of the wild, the painting echoes the influence of Jackson Pollock’s action painting and Mark Rothko’s emotive layering, yet stands as a distinctly original vision. Its vertical forms evoke towering trees or the stance of a hesitant creature, inviting personal interpretation and a sense of raw, instinctual energy.

Here are a few photos of the work.

Happy to announce that a collector has purchased my work Time in the Sun (Los Angeles) which was sold at Zatista online gallery. This work is 48 x 36 inches and was created in 2018.

Introducing “Time in the Sun,” an original abstract painting by popular artist Nestor Toro, measuring a versatile 36 x 48 inches. This radiant work showcases Toro’s mastery of abstract expressionism, drawing inspiration from the vibrant energy of Jackson Pollock and the luminous color fields of Mark Rothko. Painted with a large palette knife and finished with a glossy sheen, this piece captures the essence of basking in sunlight, with the flexibility to be hung vertically or horizontally, making it a dynamic addition for collectors seeking art that radiates warmth and joy.

The painting glows with a sun-drenched palette that evokes the feeling of a perfect day under the sun. Fiery yellows and oranges dominate the canvas, cascading like beams of sunlight, their intensity amplified by the large palette knife’s bold, textured strokes. These warm hues are interwoven with vibrant reds and pinks, which flow through the composition like the heat of a summer afternoon, adding a sense of passion and vitality. Deep blues and greens emerge in subtle layers, suggesting the cool shadows of a sunlit landscape, while hints of white and soft purples provide a delicate contrast, enhancing the painting’s luminous depth.

The glossy finish amplifies the artwork’s radiant quality, making the colors shimmer with a vibrant, almost sunlit intensity that feels alive with warmth. Toro’s use of a large palette knife creates a richly textured surface, with each stroke capturing the spontaneity of a moment in the sun. “Time in the Sun” is a visual celebration, blending light and color in a way that feels both exhilarating and serene, offering endless versatility in display.
