Born in Guadalajara Jalisco, Mexico, José Parra comes from a family of three generations of artists. He started out early studying under his father and when he was 16 years old, he decided to formally follow in his father’s footsteps. Parra worked with several galleries in Puerto Vallarta for three years, and enjoyed a brief stint in Toronto; however, he had his first individual art exhibit in New York, in 2001.
Jose Parra’s style follows the old baroque style, which was popular in the sixteenth to mid-eighteenth centuries. The baroque style used exaggerated motion and easily-interpreted details to produce drama and tension within the imagery.

This blog is a refugee and a survivor of the Great Tumblr Inquisition of December 17th, 2018. I am gay artist, who received training at the Rhode Island School of Design, and now, a retired high-end fine art framer living in Maryland, USA. My interests and studies in life run a wide gamut from art to history and from the scientific to the esoteric. I have been building this blog of images and texts for the last eight years. My wish is that my posts pique the interest of viewers and encourage them to experience more.
