Description
Realistic acrylic painting of Manuel Fernandez Garcia, with his painting of Carmona near Sevilla in Spain, all painted by the Dutch fine artist Paul Meijering - the original painting is 120 x 90 cm
Spanish artist Manuel Fernandez Garcia. The artist was born in 1927, his family included artists before him: his great-grandpa painted religious subjects and signed them with the name Perez, and there were other relatives with an artistic gift. Manuel was never able to complete his schooling, he had to work - to help his father in the family shop. It was there that he met his future mentor - the artist Jose Arpa Perea kept his easel, brushes, paints, finished paintings in the warehouse of his father's store. Manuel took Jose's paints without asking and painted them on the roof. The artist did not complain about the boy, but, on the contrary, began to support him in every possible way, to take him to the planners, the two of them went in search of beautiful views: landscapes, courtyards, squares. When someone said to them: "Oh! Teacher and student", then 90-year-old Arpa answered: "No, no. We are friends."
So, Manuel Garcia became an artist. His genre scenes are imbued with love for Spain, its history, Spain of the 19th century, its small towns and landscapes appear in his paintings. Manuel practically did not go anywhere, his native Spain was enough for him.
