Fermando Garcia Monzon is a Spanish artist born in 1957 who lives & works in Saragosse in Spain. He is awarded in architecture from University of Valence in 1986. Of all the visual arts, drawing is the most mysterious form of expression. A basic utensil places a touch of black on a surface and creates something real. The charcoal pencil, the pencil filled with lead, graphite or silver lead, the goose feather quill, the fountain pen and, of course, the brush! They have all been used throughout history, and in the present day, to create space on a plane. As if by magic, the austerity of this media blooms into a wealth of expression. The volume then emerges, the light envelops it, the shadow appears discreet, and the artist's soul is revealed. Fernando García Monzón is one of those rare artists who links form to the pure and modest stroke of his pencil. His hand captures his intense gaze with technical mastery. He draws an immutable, imperious and clear line, like the perfect curve of a shell.
