Welcome to hectortarango.com

I began drawing as a young kid when I was in middle school.  My father was an artist while growing up and I was inspired by him.  My father painted landscapes and old adobe scenery.  After his passing I collected all his books and painting supplies and started painting as a way to connect with him and his memory.  Modern abstracts have allways been what I lean toward.  15 years ago I was asked to paint a sample for a large e-commerce company's board room.  The company liked it and hired me.  Since then I have sold countless paintings that proudly live around the U.S., Canada and Europe.  I have many pieces displayed at restaurants and doctor's offices where I do the only advertising.  Most of my requests come by way of referrals. I only do abstract pieces on custom made wood frames that I paint with acrylic paints and other mixed medias.  I finish most pieces with resin and others with lacquer that produces less sheen.
