Emilio González Sáinz (Cantabria, Spain, 1961) His watercolors are a setting that recreates poetic and dreamlike worlds, with epic overtones. They have sprouted from the enjoyment afforded by his walks in the surroundings, from the emotion of feeling how nature permeates everything, how natural cycles, silently, leave their mark on him, which he transmits to his work. These are works that contain a classic serenity and provoke a sensation of placidity, of timeless stillness, that transports us to some place between earth and sky.

The writer Emily Dickinson said that “nature is so sudden that it makes us all ancient,” words that, at the time, the professor and art critic Francisco Javier San Martín dedicated to the artist. He was referring to how his work draws on the atmosphere of the environment and is driven by the perception of what is close, of lived places, closing his eyes and awakening inner, authentic vision.
