Charlie Simon : The calm force, Las Terrenas

Charlie Simon is an integral part of the artistic community in Las Terrenas, as is his work.

After finishing his studies at the prestigious school of Fine Arts of Altos de Chavón, Mr. Simon chose to reside and create in Las Terrenas. He is a member of CODPA (Dominican Art College) which has links to Unesco, and belongs to the group of renown Dominican painters. He exhibits his works in his gallery in the Paseo that also serves as his studio.

He is appreciated as much for his kind character, elegant humility and sincere smile, as for his grand talent and artistic culture.

Inspired by Gérard Michel and very strongly by Chagall, Picasso and Jean Dubuffet, he navigates in an imaginary, often totally abstract or figurative world, with his collection of portraits of women, combining his Caribbean culture with his taste pronounced by Impressionist techniques and pointillists. His playful mixtures of colors are spontaneous, his portraits of woman are moving. He expresses through his paintings his emotions, his instinct and his vision of the present moment.

Mr. Simon's reputation has long surpassed the borders of the Dominican Republic and his paintings are exhibited and sold in France, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Greece and the United States. More than 1000 of his paintings circulate the world, randomly encountering knowledgeable amateurs or professionals who discovered him in Las Terrenas and are responsible for spreading his name throughout Europe and North America.

Come and discover his amazing talent, paintings and collages, in his gallery in the Paseo or on the prestigious website Art Price that also presents his works.
