About the artist

Juan Ruiz

Juan Ruiz

Juan Ruiz, Jaén 1993. Jienense painter, currently resident in Granada.

The style in which Juan Ruiz moves is figuration, which he takes as a world to be explored, where everything is interpretable, both the shape and the color, seeking in some way to achieve new registers or new solutions with which approach a figurative painting today.

Trained at the School of Art in Jaén (José Nogué), his career revolves around continuous experimentation in which the following stand out as the main references, among others: Nicolás Uribe, Rupretch Von Kaufman, Jenny Saville, Basquiat or Jerome Witkin .

Despite his youth, part of his production has been seen collectively and individually in galleries and national and international art fairs.

Student comments

  1. Carmen Pilar –

    Muy satisfecha con el curso. Me lo pienso mucho antes de dar un brochazo y ver esa valentía y esa seguridad de Juan al pintar me ha encantado y animado a intentarlo. Los truquillos del boli y el cúter geniales, también me arriesgaré con ellos. A ver si se anima Juan y hace otro curso de pintar animales que sus gatos me encantan.Saludos.

  2. lola garmont –

    Me ha encantado el curso. La técnica muy bien explicada, paso a paso, haciendo que disfrutes del proceso.

  3. Alfonso –

    Me ha parecido un curso muy interesante. Juan lo expone con mucha calma y se nota que disfruta con lo que hace. Lo que más me ha gustado es el trabajo de superposición gradual de capas hasta lograr el resultado final, creando volumen a través del color. Muy satisfecho
