Beatriz Padilla

“I am an activist painter, a wilderness ambassador, an artist irretrievably in love with Earth’s flora, fauna, substrates and cycles. Out in the wild, quiet and fairly still, creatively immersed in nature for hefty continuums of time, my communion with the multiple dimensions of each habitat gains in depth as I endeavor to render homage to its millenary evolution and present-day significance, portraying its particular expression, its unique character, its sounds.” – Beatriz Padilla
