EDUARDO LUIZ ARGÜELLES DE SOUZA

Eduardo Argüelles is a Brazilian born painter, cardiologist and university professor. Argüelles began painting at 48 years of age, and sustains up to today, his status of self-taught artist.  To achieve higher levels of quality with his drawings, Argüelles adept the classic style, briefly transitioned to symbolist painting, leading to his current phase.

The result of that is what we can refer to "oneiric figurative".
