Over the holidays a delightful cheerful work called “A Little Hiding Place #5” was purchased as a gift for someone right here in Los Angeles as a surprise gift. I am always happy that my art is appreciated enough that not only will collectors purchase it for themselves but also think highly enough to give my art as a gift to someone they care about! Thank you very much! Nestor Toro

SOLD – A Little Hiding Place #5″ by painter Nestor Toro in Los Angeles California

A true burst of warm tones, lines and organic shapes. For this painting I applied any layers of plaster molding it into random shapes that later on I covered with a very colorful palette and gloss mediums. The best quality art materials Sennelier and Golden acrylics plus UV protected. This artwork is mixed media, acrylic and watercolor, on Linen surface gallery quality canvas board.

 

I am a painter and my work is pure abstraction. Some might think they are easy to do and that anyone could do them. These people are of course wrong!

Wassily Kandinsky said, “Of all the arts, abstract painting is the most difficult. It demands that you know how to draw, have a heightened sensitivity for composition and for colors and that you are a true poet. This last is essential.

As you can see the ability to start with a blank canvas and apply color in a harmonious and visually balanced is necessary. Abstract painting is much more than simply throwing or appling random colors in a random manner. Nestor Toro – Painter

Forth artwork of a color field series. for this piece I chose this vibrant blue palette, many shades of blue, purple and red, all completed with palette knife. This artwork is full of luminance, glossy and iridescent. This work measures 48 x 32 inches. One of the last works of 2017!

I am happy announce that I have sold the work Visionary Terrain 3 to a new collector in Cambridge MA. Thank you Corey and I hope you enjoy your first fine art acquisition which will arrive there soon! Thank you again – Nestor Toro

This is a very iridescent work with greens and blue hues blending together depending on the viewing angle. You will never get tired of viewing this special statement work because you will never see it the same way twice!

Texture over gesso layered canvas using fluid translucent acrylics and iridescent mediums dropping paint layers on top of layers to make all the color blend together with texture and relief. As the paint covers the previous layers you get lots of depth and the painting becomes a colorfield landscape with different shapes as you get closer to it. This oversized painting is truly a statement piece. I had a great time working on this painting! This is a mixed media painting Oil pastels and Acrylics.

I am happy to announce that I have sold a work from my series “Sublime Distraction” and this work is the first of the series and called “Sublime Distraction 1”. The work is 36 x 48 inches and is a vibrant statement work that is heading to Bethesda, MD. Thank you John and enjoy your new artwork! Nestor Toro – Los Angeles

This piece is all about contrast of colors and organic shapes. While molding the paint and mediums using palette knives all the organic motion filled shapes were created, layer after layer. The many shades of light blue, purple, turquoise, green and bold yellow on each layer make this painting a great energy filled composition and one meant to the statement piece of a great room! This is a mixed media painting acrylic and sennelier pastels. This work was purchased via online gallery Zatista! Thank you to them as well!
