Fernando Goyan Art

Goyan's work is largely inspired by his love of the sea, although he does sometimes also paint inland. His vibrant, highly textured oils present a bold and distinctive interpretation of the Spanish coast, and his overtones of imagination make the finished work intensely expressive. He has a spontaneous, even forceful style, which combines with his breadth of vision to give powerful portrayals of each scene.

Goyan was born in Valencia in 1959 and studied at the San Carlos School. A self-taught painter, he spent his early life perfecting his technique in oil painting; he was, and still is, a frequent visitor to many of Spain's great galleries, where he observes the work and absorbs the influences of other artists that he admires.

Goyan's work can be found in both individual and collective exhibitions in many of Spain's major cities including Madrid, Seville, Granada and his home, Valencia. His introduction to the UK has been greeted with enthusiasm on the art market.
