The Clot del Móro quarry

Pedrola captures expressive originality with landscape vistas that become informal brushstrokes of pictorial expression with naturalist reflections suggested by his observations of reality. This work has been produced employing a technique known as encaustic painting, an old and somewhat forgotten procedure, given its complexity. Antoni Pedrola Font (1928) studied at the Sant Jordi School of Fine Art, now the University of Barcelona, where he later became a full-time lecturer. During his tenure, he has combined painting with lecturing at the Faculty of Fine Art, publishing a book on his subject, Painting Procedures, entitled: Painting Procedures and Techniques, published by the University of Barcelona.
