Rafa Fernandez

Rafa Fernandez has mastered the Art of Glazing that I will probably never see in my lifetime! 
It is Divine!
I discovered Rafa {Rafael} Fernandez from a Library boOK.
It was an artist workshop book and he showed his technique, 
but in a broad way. 
I have not been able to get the hang of it.










He is a Costa Rican born artist,
who still resides there. 
Most of his shows are there too,
if he's still showing. 
It seems unfortunately,
I cannot forsee being able to actually view his art. 


It's getting harder and harder to find information on Him.
{sigh}
His glazing technique gives a Luminescence to His Figures that are unearthly. And that's looking at it in a boOk or on the computer screen.
I can only imagine the vibrations that those paintings have.
So in the meantime, I must resign My Self to looking at his art in cyber world.
