SHY DOG II (2020) Painting by Tomasa Martin

Tomasa Martin is a contemporary Spanish painter renowned for her silent and poetic art, which finds expression through images that craft atmospheres capable of conveying deep feelings and emotions.

Her artistic focus revolves around the exploration of the human experience. Much like the arrival of spring each year never fails to captivate her, so too does the complexity of human beings. Their emotions and the nuanced expressions of feelings serve as an endless wellspring of inspiration for her. Tomasa's artistic journey involves delving into the intricate tapestry of human emotions, with a distinct purpose of showcasing the emotional facets rather than merely capturing the surface of a portrait.

In her creative process, Tomasa skillfully employs acrylics and oil simultaneously, allowing her to manipulate the execution times of her works. She opts for linen or wood as her preferred support, enhancing the tactile and visual elements of her creations.

For Tomasa, painting serves as a powerful tool for storytelling and expressing the myriad emotions that define her existence - excitement, melancholy, irritation, and all the other nuances that contribute to her identity. Through a minimalistic setting, she endeavors to establish a profound connection with the viewer - a goal she consistently strives to achieve in each of her works.

Tomasa Martin's artistic journey has been marked by numerous exhibitions since 1990, spanning across Europe, the USA, and Asia. Her creations bear an intimist character with a minimalist construction, drawing inspiration from daily details and motivated by events occurring globally. Through her art, Tomasa invites the audience to engage with the profound emotions woven into the fabric of the human experience.
