Following painting traditions in realism, Alejandro Tejeda creates a snapshot of everyday life in his native Cuba. His oil paintings are constructed in a cinematic style – a composition that draws the viewer into the frame. Street scenes are often the subject of choice, depicting a wide variety of characters and situations. The everyday scenes that Tejeda paints are a sensitive insight into Cuba and its people that many of his viewers would not otherwise be able to access. Through his formally refined realistic paintings, the viewer is transported there with him. (Courtesy of the Artist's Website.)
