Emilio Perez creates organically shaped and free-flowing masterpieces that are conceived using a latex paint and enamel medium. His graphic works resemble bird’s eye views of landscapes and waterways and are created using a signature technique that layers latex paint over enamel.

Once conceived, each Emilio Perez painting is further customized as the artist cuts away from his topcoat to reveal hidden layers of transparencies and textures that would otherwise never be seen.

Mixing monochromatic and colored hues, Emilio creates striking illustrations that play with [transparency and texture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorscape-installation). Their [sculptural aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pure-exhibition) is the result of the artist’s signature technique. Moreover, the [organic forms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neojomon-biomorphic-fantme) that he displays are inspired by the spontaneous and unexplained beauty of nature.
