Thanks Commandax. These are spectacular. I'm putting Alex on my collector hit list for 2012-13. Also Hernan Bas and Angel Ortero.
Not sure I can afford a one of them but, hey, gotta dream.

Wow. Thanks Commandax.
I have not seen Alex's work before. What a great surprise. I'm not entirely sure who my favorite artists are yet. But you certainly know one when you see one. I specifically like his use of really dark areas (sometimes light dabs too) to help me put the rest of the lighting into perspective. It seems like an interesting way to add depth to lighting, without having to repeat classic impressionism. And he paints places that inhabit people, weather or not there are people in them. I guess I see the people painted (in those spaces) in a way I wouldn't always see them either. I will check him out further and see how my thoughts evolve.

Heard from the gallery. Some are available still from his recently ended show, but I'm late to the game so none that for me were worth the price tag. But you might feel differently...
