ABOUT THE ARTIST
Venezuela born, Phillip grew up in Miami Florida where since as a kid his love and imagination for the arts began when he was given coloring books of cartoon characters and Lego pieces which he followed his instincts by adding alternate colors to the characters and building alternate objects with the pieces. Phillip developed a sense of style when creating artworks using cardboard paper and scented markers which this helped him create an artwork for a themed art project while in 4th grade. Phillip took art classes in high school for leisure and enjoyment while earning credits towards college. Graphic design felt the closest to him when it came to designing and coloring while in college however working with workbooks and coding on a computer did not hold his attention and after graduation he realized that his passion lies in being in his own element, his own world of creating artworks freely of imaginative characters, landscapes, nature, portraits and abstracts and just about anything you can think of, all in sharp geometric forms coupled with lustrous colors which he owes much of his inspirations to Picasso. Phillip had the opportunities to showcase some of his older artworks at the local art shows at the Gates Hotel in Miami Beach and had the pleasure to exhibit one of his recent artwork at the Art Fusion Gallery in Wynwood in the fall of 2023. He believes every piece of art should tell a story and that all art pieces should also evoke an optimistic view of life and the future, happiness and inspirations for future generations.
