BIO
Ignacio was born in Madrid, Spain, where his Colombian artist father went to paint, inspired by the Spanish greats of the late 60's. After returning to Bogota, Colombia his father passed and the family moved to Vancouver, Canada.
Ignacio was educated through art, immersed in an intensely creative discipline for over two decades within the motion picture art department. Surrounded by incredible artists and other-worldly design challenges, his creativity flourished.
Ignacio now resides in southern California. Inspirited by his fathers paintings, he is exploring the depths of his creativity as a visual artist. His Colombian heritage erupts in colour and form whilst he experiences this language and embraces its lessons. Lost, in this wonderful world of art.

Artist Statement
Art is a language, spoken by the universe. A love, the earth, a song, the sky, inspires this spirit. It pierces the dark to strike in my heart. Flooding my mind where I render the message and await its acquaintance. Transcending time and experiences it's formed through my hands with epoxy and pigments. I capture the moment with form, flow, light, reflections, shadows, depth and emotions. Nature's elegance and struggles, balancing in the vastness of color.
