Passion
For Ernesto de la Rosa, art is not merely a creative act; it is a personal and emotional challenge. His passion lies in the transformation of the intangible into visual and tactile forms—turning ideas into works that speak to those who encounter them. What was once an “impossible” for him—such as drawing—has become a driving force that fuels his continuous experimentation and refinement of technique.
Possibility
Ernesto’s journey stands as proof that it is never too late to learn and create. He began his artistic path at the age of 60, defying self-imposed limits and showing that the chance to reinvent oneself is always within reach. His experience encourages others to explore their potential, regardless of the stage of life they are in.
Purpose
The purpose behind Ernesto de la Rosa’s work transcends aesthetic creation. His art seeks to establish a connection with others—to convey that every challenge can become a path to growth, and that limits exist only to be surpassed. Through painting, printmaking, and sculpture, Ernesto offers a vision of life where perseverance and self-commitment are the forces that make any goal attainable.
