Santiago Heredia
By limiting himself to use only the simplest of lines, shapes, and
colors, Santiago Heredia has developed a style that is both playful
and significant. Born in Bogotá, Colombia and having no formal fine
art training, Santiago was able to harvest a passion and eagerness to
create into artwork that summons the audience to play with, be
entertained by, and all the while be an integral part of. Santiago
wants his audience to feel that they are as important to creating the
piece as the paint going on the canvas is.
During many of his numerous "live paintings" spectators are given
the chance to watch an artist who has truly wrangled his craft allow
his work to unfold right before them. Santiago has a growing "library
of ideas"; a collection of the same sketches that he produces over and
over again from the ground up allowing on a few minutes to complete
each one. "The trick is to get better and better at that one piece
before you commit yourself to producing it for an audience"
