109 - Jorge Gomez JG 65 (1990)

19.5 x 27.5 inches • Pastel on paper • Framed

Jorge Gomez depicts fantastic worlds inhabited by people and animals who live and interact in vividly articulated suburban settings. He places his surreal cartoon-like figures in forests or fountains, and they often appear to be in a moment of transformation, not entirely human or animal. He also creates lush floral paintings reminiscent of his tropical homeland of Cuba. Gomez has practiced at Creative Growth since 1986.

Gomez’s work has been included in exhibitions at Nina Johnson Gallery, Miami; 836M Gallery, San Francisco; and Outsider Art Fair, New York.
