ALBERT GONZALES

Albert Gonzales is born and raised in San Antonio. Gonzales’s fine art approaches are visual experiments within composition, style, and technique. From abstraction to still life to portraits, his art can span multiple genres. With bold color palettes, his often “outrageous” paintings are fun and unpredictable. As a great commentator on his own art style, his showmanship brings forth the passion for his art and his need to create. His audience is able to see and feel his dearest dedication to craft. 

WABI SABI

Wabi Sabi, a Japanese philosophy which can be translated to the idea of embracing the beauty of the imperfect, or in simple terms, perfectly imperfect. Through my art, I translate that philosophy by abstracting the flowers I paint. I create these non-anatomically correct flowers to stand as a symbol meaning we are the flower. We all have our own imperfections or insecurities. And just like the flower we are all unique and beautiful in our own way and have the ability to radiate our energy beyond ourselves. In this piece I use the two marigolds to symbolise the spirits of my grandfather’s who our no longer with us.
