to see how the

I
Siempre Estaré

Seascapes and coastal light from the Big Island. Horizontal rhythms, dissolving suns, water in perpetual becoming. A meditation on what endures.

Ongoing Series
II
Eyes of the Earth

The earth as witness. Ancient formations, deep pressures, the gaze of a landscape that has seen everything and forgets nothing.

Painting is how I
translate
what I feel
into what you see.

I am a self-taught painter, originally from Uruguay, now living on the Big Island of Hawaii. The ocean has always been my subject — not the ocean as postcard, but the ocean as presence. The light that arrives before the sun. The silence after a wave.

I work in oil on canvas, building surfaces over time, mixing warm and cool in the way coastal light actually moves. My paintings take months. Some take years. I am not in a hurry.

My work is represented by Tiffany's Art Agency and is displayed at Mauna Lani Auberge, one of the world's most distinguished luxury resorts.
