Borges
Award-winning full-time professional artist
BFA, BA Studio Art with painting and drawing concentration
Trained in traditional methods of studio practices, painting and drawing
Expressionistic style - both representational and non-representational with intimate personal response to the world

My paintings have become increasingly abstract over time, with juxtaposed and layered shapes. I am more concerned with capturing the essence of humanity, places, and things, than I am about giving full details of what I see. As you view my work, I invite you to envision your own experiences; only through this addition of personal interpretation can my work be complete.

My drawings, paintings, and other works of art reflect my love of life. The ability to bring about a positive effect in your daily life brings me great joy.

Borges' paintings, drawings and other creations can be found in homes and private collections across the United States as well as Canada, Portugal, France, Germany, Ireland, Brazil and many other countries.

Inspired by Life Color and Music and Committed to Art
Love Classical, Opera, and Jazz music—Art History, Museums, Reading, Politics, and Cultures

Statement:
My style has evolved through many years of learning and exploring the fine arts. Composition, color, and shapes are key components of my work; I use these elements together to convey my immediate surroundings and bring what I see to life. My daily life as an artist is a never-ending process of learning and experimenting with different types of medias and subject matter.
Fresh from studio

eBay is a convenient way for me share my creations with people all over the world.

 

News:
I've participated on the makeover of the Hope Leadership Academy in New York City. The Hope Leadership Academy is a charity in New York City which teaches inner-city teens successful problem-solving skills; with the help of such an organization, these teens will one day excel to become positive leaders within their communities.

Using only items from eBay, the sprawling basement of the The Hope Leadership Academy was transformed into a beautiful, practical and comfortable room. This room is where the teens meet, work, and learn.

The makeover was featured in the summer/06 issue of Oprah at Home magazine. I am included in other publications, as well.

I feel privileged to have the honor of participating in the makeover of the Hope Leadership Academy, and I am grateful for the visibility and opportunities eBay offers its sellers.


Thank you for visiting. I appreciate your patronage and support.

Please come again.
