Diego Painting

I am narrative painter. In my works, I raise topics related to the relationship between human and nature. ​ The main topic of my paintings is portrait. I present a human surrounded by the world of nature - plants, leaves or trees that form the background or surround the figure. Both in a realistic portrait and natural structures I am searching for the truth about the perception of reality. My portraits also have a psychological dimension. I try to depict not only the physicality but the depth of character's character. The forest in the pictures symbolizes the subconscious mind, as well as the internal need of return to nature. The style in which I work is about achieving a balance between the use of realistic and synthetic elements in composition and the narrative approach to the presented topics - each painting is a complete story.
