Fear and Courage (2023) Painting by Milo Abadilla

A self-schooled contemporary artist from San Jose, California, USA standing for the Silicon Valley artistry since 2014 in an emerging fashion.  Milo's styles are aligned around a mix of expressionism, surrealism and a touch of fauvism, around figurative subjects, still and landscapes. 

Milo uses oil on canvas and mixed media. His tools are varieties of brushes, pallets, combined with other artist aiding tools. 

His approach to concepts is visionary and likes to start-up with either a preconceived theme or exploring ideas of sketches as he progresses over the canvas. He likes to paint applying bold pattern of color combinations and decide the definitive version of the theme and message he wants convey. 

He wants to create his artworks to the level by which his audience can capture the essence of their own real-life experience. Milo's art touches human sensitivities and it's his way of bringing his work to the public.  

Milo likes to follow the path to Edward Munch ideas, and he took an inspiration from friend contemporary artist Bernard Emanuel Beneito, (RIP), a fauvist from France. His philosophy about the future of his name as an artist depends on how his critics and audience will judge his works. He believes in Plato's famous quote, “Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. "Milo intends to understand something clearly at the end of the day when the public declares his work a masterpiece.

While Milo is away from his paintings, he spends time with other family business and loves to play golf, cook his YouTube dishes, and watch his favorite current events on television. He is a happy married man with wife Margarita Del Mundo Abadilla going 36 years now.
