" i started painting since i was a very little kid. Because i had notice that it was my preferred thing in the whole world. i liked the colors, pencils, brushes and paints... so my family decided give me a support to perform my art skills. i went to art classes when i was about 12 years old. it was so nice, because my teacher showed me some art books with Salvador Dali's images... and it was a great influence for me in my early times"
" i'm in love with all colors. Usually it's a great resource in my process and of course , the final product. i can use colors like a mirror of my own feelings. frequently i do a lot of reflections about color psychology and about it symbolism. but sometimes i can be more empiric and primary"
"my inspiration came from women and all their beauty. but i'm influenced by art, history, music, fashion world, family and friends or architecture as well. but i admire some illustrators or designers too... although my artworks can be really different to the works of those artist. i would like to approach to the modern illustration scene through my artworks and personal technique "
" the only clean spots are those made with paint"
Robert Tirado,
Robert Tirado is a graphic artist who is currently based in Valencia, Spain.
AEI. UO is his experimental project that puts together, digital illustration, painting and graphic design, which results in an impeccable, innovative new form of art and intends to break through with patterns in the so-called digital art.
His artworks are consequence to the experience on traditional art techniques, which sometimes gives it a perfect balance between the particular look of digital work and the expression of real life painting that this artist played since his early time.
AEI.UO is a research for many ways to get optimal results, based in feminine charming and influenced by music, history, art, and the modern fashion world; never leaving behind poetry, geometric shapes, and a critical eye in front of all around – and this, of course, gives it a extensive ground to be sometimes irreverent, somehow naïve, colourful and playful.
His works and pieces of art have been published in many art and design magazines around Europe and America and he has been winner in diverse design contests. He has worked together with vanguard music bands and collectives (web design and illustrations) and participated in many art exhibitions as well, since 2004 to 2009.
AEI.UO is definitely a new proposal for those who look for fresher perspectives about art and its wide range of possibilities in this digitalized age.
