Painting Style

How Fernando Developed His Painting Style
From the earliest days of his training, Fernando Robles understood that mastery of art required more than talent—it demanded immersion in its deepest traditions. His studies at different art institutions exposed him to the foundations of the traditional European style, where discipline, patience, and technique were woven together in service of beauty. Yet it was beyond the classroom, standing before the world’s masterpieces, that his vision truly began to take shape.

He sought them out like old friends waiting to be met: the quiet majesty of The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the grandeur of the Hermitage in Russia, the modern elegance of the Guggenheim, the intimate spaces of the Rembrandt House in Amsterdam, the regal halls of the Prado in Spain, the timeless stones of the Acropolis Museum in Athens, the historic galleries of the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C., the gilded treasures of the Louvre in Paris, the sacred corridors of the Vatican Museums in Rome, and the ancient wonders of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.

In each, he found not only paintings and sculptures, but lessons—subtle truths about light, composition, and the human spirit that no textbook could convey. These encounters did more than influence his work; they shaped the very way he sees the world. Today, every brushstroke carries with it a whisper of those encounters, a dialogue between past and present, and a testament to his enduring belief in the timeless power of great art.
