About Enrique Pichardo

Enrique Pichardo, born in Mexico City, displayed a strong interest in the visual arts and a keen eye for detail from a very early age. His rare talent was quicky recognized and he spent his formative years experimenting, developing and honing his artistic skills before enrolling at the prestigious Escuela Nacional de Pintura, Esculura y Grabado, “La Esmerelda” (National School of Painting, Sculpture and Engraving "La Esmeralda") In Mexico City.

Pichardo’s artworks are primarily figurative, in a liner form, with magical ensembles,  often whimsical or with a child-like innocence. His vibrant colour tones, striking plains of block colour, pictorial signs, biomorphic forms and geometric shapes demonstrate inspiration from the great Modern European artists Juan Miro and Pablo Picasso.
