Ruben Ernesto Art
The artists Ruben and Ernesto are a father son-duo. In the first decennium of the 21st century father Ernesto earned himself a name with his abstract paintings. His paintings were sold in Spain, Gremany, and The Netherlands. His flamboyant and colourful works were sold in the streets, at the door, in galeries, at exhibitions and during action painting shows. In Berlin, Ernesto owned his own gallery.
Until in 2010 Ernesto decided to call it a day, and stored his brush away for a undefined period of time.
​
After this some years of busking followed, with which the family supported themselves. Later on the father-son duo RubenErnesto came to life. Every painting is created by the two of them in a joint effort. Fran6K focusses on the varnishing of the paintings, and sales support.
​
Son Ruben was raised with brush and paint. As a toddler he would witness his fathers painting in open admiration and growing up Ruben developed his own special style. He loved and loves to explore the limits of reality and the borders that separate abstract forms from figurative shapes. He refuses to be limited by what is “done”or “not done” in the use of techniques, paint and materials.
Being a young adult Ruben developed a new style together with his dad – defined as RubenErnesto-art – which is a mix of abstract art, naïve art and Pop Art.
The artists look at the world and life in all its absurdities and normalities. As followers of Yahsuha (Jesus) they consider themselves to be strangers in this world. .
Ruben and Ernesto paint their creations in the beautiful nature of Vlaanderen, Belgium, where they have the privilige to live and create. Being a perfect father-son team all paintings are a beautiful mix of maturity and youthfulness. This mix, based on love, faith and respect, contains the promise for loads and loads of new RubenErnesto paintings in the future.
​
Don't be surprised if you suddenly see a RubenErnesto painting in the streets, Ruben and Ernesto like to travel with their work closely at hand.
