Willy Ramos

For Willy Ramos, to paint is to express, emit and transmit in a simple form a personal emotion. It creates a feeling that palpitates in the being. It regenerates the soul and nourishes the spirit. A painting is timeless and it's purpose is to transcend.

Color is the main characteristic in Willy Ramos's world of painting. He uses colors to depict form, movement and composition. He submerges himself in an array of primary colors that vibrate and resonate sensations. The brightness and intensity arouses many feeling and emotions. The smoothness of his brush stroke invites the viewer to be part of the painting.

His themes capture a sense of aliveness, and express sensations of irony, tenderness, sensuality, poetry and strength. His joy for life is portrayed in his use of color, his vibrant palette speaks from his heart. His paintings trace a history of everyday memories - the chair, the bottle, the shoes, the vase of flowers, the female body. The nuance is conveyed in the amalgam of details. Each rendering whether it be an oil on canvas or a watercolor and acrylic on paper delivers a softness as well as a pulsating energy.

Willy Ramos paintings have been acquired by museums and institutions throughout Spain.
