Giovanny Lopez (b.1990) is a Colombian born artist, currently based out of South Florida.

 

Growing up, I was inspired by art masters such as Rembrandt, Peter Paul Rubens and Diego Velazquez. I want to create small windows and realities for the viewer to experience. 

 

In my artistic practice, I explore the potential of oil paint to achieve a luminous transparency akin to watercolor. Through meticulous experimentation and technique, I harness the inherent qualities of oil to create a visual experience that defies traditional expectations. 

 

Embracing the sketch component of my process, deliberately leave traces of line work within the layers of paint. These remnants serve as a testament to the intricate construction of humanity, revealing the delicate threads that weave together the individual in the portrait.
