The mixed media work on wood is inspired by the Greek mythology character of Psyche, the embodiment of the soul. The first layer of the painting, the Venetian imprimatur, was carefully chosen to evoke a sense of timelessness and historical significance. The work features a detailed charcoal drawing, capturing the essence of the subject and inviting the viewer to delve into the story behind it. The inspiration for the painting came from the desire to bring to life the timeless beauty of Greek mythology through contemporary techniques. The artist was drawn to Psyche's story, which embodies the journey of the soul in search of true love and fulfillment. The choice of mixed media on wood was made to bring together the traditional techniques of the old masters with modern methods, creating a unique and captivating piece. The artist hopes that viewers of this work will be transported to another time and place, and will feel a sense of awe and wonder at the beauty and mystery of Greek mythology. The intricate details of the charcoal drawing and the use of historical techniques invite the viewer to contemplate the subject matter and feel a connection with the ancient world. The work is a celebration of beauty and love, and the artist's hope is that it will inspire the viewer to think about their own journey in life and the quest for true happiness. The choice of Psyche as the subject matter, the use of mixed media on wood, and the incorporation of traditional techniques, all come together to create a one-of-a-kind piece that is both beautiful and thought-provoking.

Martín Albornoz is a mixed media painter who blends classical figurative techniques with modern subjects. His aim is to evoke emotions and sensations in the observer through his paintings. He works exclusively with traditional materials and techniques, creating masterpieces with oil, charcoal, pastel, and gold and bronze accents. Born in Chile, Martín's journey as an artist began with a trip to Europe where he discovered the beauty of classical figurative painting. He then shifted his focus from business administration to Visual Arts, but found that the educational institutions did not offer the level of figurative training he was seeking. Undeterred, he sought out private instruction from renowned realist painters, including Ricardo Ramirez, Andrea Carreño, and former pupil of Odd Nerdrum, Javier Adams. Martín continues to study the techniques of Rembrandt, Caravaggio, and Titian to perfect his craft. Martín's paintings are a celebration of beauty, love, and mythology, each a unique interpretation of his vision of these timeless themes. His signature style is immediately recognizable, with a raw, non-hyperrealistic approach to his subjects. He often incorporates runes into his paintings, with hidden messages and signatures that add depth and meaning to his works. The creation of each painting is a multi-step process, starting with sketching and composition, finding models, taking photographs, refining the composition with photoshop, and finally transferring the image to the canvas using the traditional Venetian technique.
