His painting is a world of enchantment, quietude and mystery.
In spaces without reference to either place or time, he gives life to winged beings, enigmatic,
majestic, with the bareley suggested faces which look over and question us.
Semi-human beings, semi-birds, our guardian angels perhaps…
In the calm of his workshop workshop, as for a ritual, with ancestral gestures, he crushes his pigments,
obtaining a thick, smooth paste with the very pure, concentrated colors. He prefers yellows,
oranges, reds which burst into magnetic white. He works with the pallette knife, layer on layer,
superimposing the colors, blurs, erases, bleaches and in this manner he lightly with the brush, outlines pale features. It's a process which is worked out slowly over time, day after day, week after week…
"I like this alchemical process where one sees the raw fabric being metamorphosed little by little into a skin".
The painting of Francisco Javier LOSADA transports us towards a solar, enigmatic and voluptuous world
