Featured Artist of The Week: Alba Jiménez!
"Alba Jiménez was born in Barcelona (Spain) in the year 2000. She grew up near the sea and has always visited mountains when she has traveled. Since she was a child, she began her curiosity and interest in nature, specifically in photography, which has ended up leading to an interest in art, mixing the natural landscapes she has visited with textures and visual elements such as the mandala, which, as its definition indicates, it is a set of figures that express the harmony and balance of the visual elements. In addition, she is trying to use all the knowledge acquired during her psychology degree and translate it into the painting through new ideas and techniques.
I want to be highlighted because I am passionate about art, and I would like people to be able to see my art and give their opinion to know if the feeling and the idea that I had reaches them."
