Teo Andrés was born in 1995 into a family where art was a daily tradition. As the youngest of three siblings, he always felt surrounded by talent, though he did not see himself as the most gifted. His brothers, known for their technical skill and mastery of classical forms, influenced his love for art, but Andrés soon found his own path—one filled with creativity, experimentation, and a fascination with space.
From a young age, Andrés was captivated by how spaces, effects, shapes, and colours could combine to create a sense of life. While his brothers explored more traditional subjects, he focused on the more abstract aspects of art. He was fascinated by how light could transform into shadow and how shadows could add depth to what appeared flat. He decided that his art should not only be observed but also experienced.
He developed a unique technique that played with perspectives, creating a visual approach that was fresh and playful. Each piece he painted had a certain magic—figures and shapes seemed to have a life of their own, as if they were moving or changing depending on the viewer’s distance from the canvas. His works were not just meant to decorate walls; they aimed to transform spaces, giving them a new dimension. Light and shadow intertwined, creating a three-dimensional effect that made the figures seem to emerge from the canvas.
The influence of his artistic family was evident, but Andrés was the first to integrate an approach that was not only seen but also felt. His style was a blend of joy, freshness, and a playful touch reflected in every piece. No matter where his works were displayed, they always transformed the space, filling it with vibrant energy.
Andrés never worried about following traditional artistic conventions.
For him, art had to be a visual and emotional experience that challenged the viewer’s perception. He knew that each painting was an invitation to explore new dimensions, making him a unique artist within his family. Although critics often compared him to his brothers, Andrés understood that his art did not need validation by conventional standards—he was creating his own visual language, inviting everyone to see the world from a new perspective.
Today, Andrés’ works continue to be a testament to his ability to see what others do not: a vision of the world filled with light, colour, and a constant interplay of shapes and shadows. His technique remains an invitation to immerse oneself in the mystery of spaces and to be enveloped by the illusion of his art.
One of the most distinctive features of his work is the use of small dots, strokes, and tiny figures that form intricate patterns. These figures, which can be interpreted as people or abstract elements, are applied using fine brushes, palette knives, or even unconventional tools such as punchers and droppers. This approach combines elements of traditional pointillism with a contemporary style.
