PETROPICTOS, The Art of Painting on Stone
by Ciruelo

Painting directly onto the surface of stones, he follows their natural configurations, in which he is able to discover three-dimensional images of animals and human beings. The stones seem to have been sculpted, when in fact they are only studied until they reveal
their own natural forms. The result is something halfway between a painting and a sculpture.
To achieve his realistic effects, Ciruelo uses an airbrush and a paintbrush and acrylic paint.
