If we have to propose an adjective that defines the painting of Jesus Fernandez we could say without fear of contradiction that it is the sincerity, authenticity that emanates from his strokes and his view of a cityscape treated with care, on some Andalusian patios, always seen as havens, as places that remain in our memory long after we have ceased to contemplate them. If we go further in our assessment, what we see when looking at his paintings is the spirit of the south of Spain, with a clean and serene look.
With impeccable technique and a fine drawing, Jesus Fernández is able to interpret beautiful urban landscapes and immerse us in the nostalgia of the old, as seen in his doors and gates, which shows the nostalgic beauty of the objects that, over time, become history .
