Carlos Santiago is a Puerto Rican-born artist who lives and works in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts. Before moving to Boston, Carlos obtained his bachelor’s in fine art from the Savannah College of Art and Design in Georgia. He subsequently worked for ten years as a design professional in the fashion industry in New York City.

Carlos will engage viewers in the process of painting. He will talk about his work and demonstrate his technique in a casual, interactive painting session. Carlos’ still lifes walk a line between representational a nd abstract art, with his primary source of inspiration being flowers and vases. He finds complicated patterns, shapes, and repetition; elements that show up in all of his paintings.
