Today we’d like to introduce you to Fernando Sucre.
Fernando, please kick things off for us by telling us about yourself and your journey so far.
I am a Venezuelan-born artist now residing in Miami, Florida. I like people and to observe and interact with them. In fact, people make up about 90% of my artistic subject matter; faces, figures, groups, individuals, I paint them all in my own personal brand of “pop” caricature. My neo pop style combines vibrant colors with an upbeat, humorous point of view for a result that is fresh, fun and full of life. My work has been exhibited in the U.S., Europe and throughout Latin America and is included in private and public collections worldwide. As an artist living and working in Miami, I find the environment here creatively invigorating. Sources of inspiration in mine particular mode of expression, “pop” painting, seem to exude from every corner of this amazing city. I always found that “pop” art is great because it crosses just about any cultural barrier. It’s not making political statements or overly philosophical. It’s a very accessible style of art. It’s perhaps the best art form for anyone who might be intimidated by art. It’s fun, bright, colorful and full of a unique kind of energy.
Can you give our readers some background on your art?
I paint in different kind of materials, my primary form of expression is canvas, but I like to do utilitarian art too, so people can wear, decorate and have fun with my art. My neo pop style combines vibrant colors with an upbeat, humorous point of view for a result that is fresh, fun and full of life. I create a unique style that combine color with my own technique of mixing acrylic and plastic paint

What responsibility, if any, do you think artists have to use their art to help alleviate problems faced by others? Has your art been affected by issues you’ve concerned about?
My art reflects what is happening in the moment, what people are doing, the fun part of life, bars, music, night life, vacations with vibrant and bright colors. I do not like to paint sadness or conflicts, I want that my audience enjoy life the way I see it!
