Sergio Vázquez Santiago, painter and draughtsman, as well as a talented sculptor on carved and painted wood. Born in the small town of Narón, the 15th of June, 1939; he attended secondary school in the neighbouring town of Ferrol. Once an adult, he graduated on Fine Arts in Pontevedra. Gifted for drawing and painting from the earliest age, and with a clear vocation, he began his professional career in painting around 1962, when the first exhibition of his works took place. For a period of time, he worked in the free lessons for the "Círculo de Bellas Artes" institution (Fine Arts Circle) in Madrid, becoming finally registered as a copyist by The Prado Museum. Despite his few exhibitions (little more than a dozen) nobody was indifferent to his talent, neither the public, nor the critics. Extremely meticulous and perfectionist as a draughtsman, his main features as an oil painter are his strong brush stroke and his great temperament. He has used a great variety of materials to shape his work: tissues, plaster, marble dust, sand, carved and painted wood, etc. |
