Chilean artist Juan Pablo has been honing his skills in drawing with pen & ink for the past decade. Originally an Industrial Designer and professional firefighter, Juan Pablo blended his designer skills with his artistry and varied experience, bringing about a perfect marriage of his passions. His observations and the countless hours translating silent reflections into artistic drawing enabled him to capture the details of each place and infuse with life the emotive imagery, truly capturing a serene sense of place and our connection within in.

As a pen and ink artist captivated by the allure of Vancouver Island, my creative approach seeks to encapsulate the island's breathtaking landscapes and iconic landmarks with meticulous detail and expressive strokes. Utilizing the timeless medium of pen and ink, I embark on a journey to translate the island's natural beauty into intricate, hand-drawn compositions.

Immersing myself in the island's diverse environments, from the rugged shores to the towering forests, I aim to convey the unique character of each location. The juxtaposition of bold, confident strokes and delicate cross-hatching allows me to render the diverse flora and fauna that define Vancouver Island's identity. In focusing on landmarks, whether historic structures or contemporary monuments, I strive to preserve the island's cultural narrative. Each stroke serves as a testament to the interplay between tradition and modernity, echoing the dynamic spirit of Vancouver Island.
