Jaime Gurdián has been an artist since the tender age of five, when crayons and coloring books first bowed to his talent. Born and raised in Costa Rica, Jaime has always been drawn to the captivating beauty of the ocean. His art captures the vibrant colors of the sea, the golden sands, and the ever-changing skies, blending his passion for nature with his unique creative perspective. What makes his work truly stand out is his use of natural sand from Costa Rican beaches, which he molds into textured, three-dimensional scenes before adding his distinctive palette of colors. Jaime’s artistic process is as tranquil as the beaches he paints. He draws inspiration from serene walks by the ocean, snapping photos of the shifting hues and peaceful moments. Back in his studio, with classical music filling the air, he transforms those memories into art that invites viewers to bring a little piece of paradise into their homes. His collection is not just a celebration of Costa Rica's stunning coastlines but also a reminder of the importance of protecting nature for future generations. With his sunny disposition and ambitious spirit, Jaime hopes his art inspires others to share his love for the ocean and its beauty. Sol Gallery welcomes Jaime’s showcase of extraordinary talent and visitors the opportunity to experience the beaches of Costa Rica in a completely new way—through his vibrant, textural masterpieces.
