The bar scenes are a series of paintings, reflecting the atmosphere in the bars of the old quarters of Barcelona: with typical characters, men and women, spending a big amount of time in the bars of their neighbourhood.
For me, those scenes has always been an important source of inspiration. Looking at the paintings from nearby, they seem to be a diffuse composition of strokes and drips in warm colors – looking at them from some distance the topic of the bar-scene gain precise form. Over the years, these compositions grew more and more abstract, with thick layers of oil paint, but still recognisable somehow.
