Marcos Rodrigo, 1957 ~ Impressionist Figurative painter

Né en Vieille Castille en 1957, accueilli en France en 1961, dans un merveilleux petit village Lotois, je dépense mon enfance parmi les vieilles pierres et les odeurs de campagne. Initié par mon père, j'apprends à tailler le bois et la pierre. Ma mère et mes deux grandes soeurs soignent avec tendresse écorchures et coups sur les doigts. Avec bouts de laines multicolores et jolis tissus achetés au marché elles donnent forme aux vêtements que j'invente sur mes "cahiers de brouillons".

I take inspiration partly from the beautiful forests and costs here in sweden and partly from urban areas including my hometown Karlstad.
