Tomas Carranza

Inspired by his surroundings, life, nature, and his memories from childhood, Tomas Carranza creates artworks that combine these interests and translates them into a visual language particular to the artist. His skill in the technical aspects of his paintings is evident when looking at the various use of different materials which include acrylics, pencil, gold leaf, and silver leaf, to name a few. Carranza delivers a surreal world in his canvases, where the abstract becomes an oneiric scenery in which he places realist elements like eyes, gears, and paper boats, almost hidden in the composition, and only detailed observation will bring them out of their seeming obscurity.
