Art Miami returned for the 31st edition. Art Miami, America’s foremost contemporary and modern art fair, and its sister fairs CONTEXT and Aqua.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the Miami Art Fair<\/a><\/em><\/strong>, one exhibition caught many’s eyes. The artwork belongs to a 10-year-old from San Diego. The artwork of a fourth-grader was shown at the Miami Art Week, including events like Art Basel,<\/a><\/em><\/strong> while most fourth-graders finish their homework and play some video games. However, since little genius was four, he has been painting. And not long after, he became a young artist known for large, dramatic, colorful figurative paintings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you could not help but wonder who the mighty artist is, he is none other than Andres Valencia!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Andres is of Mexican origin and speaks perfect Spanish. The boy is living in San Diego (California). Regarding Andres Valencia’s parents, his father, Guadalupe, is a lawyer, and his mother, Elsa, is a jewelry designer. Nevertheless, the Mexican parent is so content, and their eyes reveal their pride in their son’s talent in front of the visitors of Art Miami.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE LEARNING PROCESS OF YOUNG TALENT<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Art surrounded his home. Andres Valencia is inspired by RETNA<\/a><\/em><\/strong>, Richard Hambleton<\/a><\/em><\/strong>, Raphael Mazzucco<\/a><\/em><\/strong>, Salvador Dal\u00ed<\/a><\/em><\/strong>. Moreover, his father has been collecting other artists’ works of art. Teachers from California public school Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA) program promptly identified his extraordinary talent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He spent hours looking at a RETNA painting in his home. Then, he began copying it repeatedly to sharpen his skills. Finally, he attempted to expand his education by watching videos about painting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He climbs up the ladder by creating large-scale works with a mix of oil sticks, oil, and acrylic paint, endeavoring to create bold colors and passionately creative fragmented facial compositions. On the other hand, he was deeply influenced by George Condo<\/a><\/em><\/strong>, Picasso<\/a><\/em><\/strong>, and Cubism<\/a><\/em><\/strong>.<\/pre>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
