Printed Canvas

A self-taught artist, Cuevas left a career in public policy to pursue art full time in 2005. Although at first frightened to take that blind leap of faith, Cuevas never looked back as he transfers original oil paintings into greeting cards, paper goods and various home decor accents, including ornaments, pillows and fabrics. Everyday, he wakes up, puts on his mix of favorite jazz albums, and paints the images in his head. I dont feel my life needs to be dark and melancholy in order to create art; I truly enjoy painting cheerful subjects says Cuevas on the subject of his work.
