More about Luis Miguel…
My name is Luis Miguel Avila, born and raised in Phoenix Arizona. I am a self-taught artist and painter. As a kid, all I wanted to do is draw, at school, and at home, the location did not matter because I had to release my creativity. As I got older my creativity grew as well to where I am now, creating masterpieces. Paintbrushes sit in jars as I find myself working primarily with a palette knife on canvas and everyday objects to include furniture. My objective is to spread a sense of joy, peace, and happiness that will resonate and capture emotions through my paintings making them relatable. I believe you should have a personal connection with the painting you are looking at, to draw you in …what I do to give it that personal connection is adding spontaneous colures, textures, and surreal designs to achieve that connection to the soul on each and every one of my paintings.
