Walfrido Garcia eagerly learned the art of painting from his father, renowned artist Edgardo F. Gracia. Walfrido is best known for his brilliant seascape art. His style of “Romantic Luminism” goes beyond just imitating the beauty of nature, adding a sense of timeless nostalgia. Each painting starts out as a loose impressionistic idea. Details emerge with each layer of paint. Meticulous highlighting brings out light and shadows that seem to glow off the canvas.   

From up close, you can see the rhythm of his brush strokes. When you step back, you see a harmonious tapestry of light, color and texture. Each painting plays upon the beauty of light whether it is a romantic moonlight, a brilliant sunset, the sea caves of Kauai or the awe-inspiring glow of his signature “Lava-scapes“. It’s as if each canvas is alive with the brilliant light of nature coming from within.
