Sol Felpeto Super Heroes Catvengers.
“Super Heroes Catvengers” is a painting by Spanish artist Sol Felpeto.
Born in Venezuela and raised between Madrid and Argentina, Felpeto studied veterinary medicine in Buenos Aires before switching to fashion design at the Istituto Europeo di Design. In a group exhibition at the National Taiwan Arts Education Center in 2020, she presented cubist portraits of women with their pet dogs, a humorous nod to Pablo Picasso’s multifaceted paintings. Felpeto’s frequent homages to the modern master include her ongoing “Picatsso” series, interpolations of revolutionary works such as Guernica and Les Demoiselles d’Avignon with depictions of Picasso’s beloved cat Minou in place of figures. “Everything is much more fun with animals,” the artist has said.
Sol Felpeto’s works have been offered at auction several times, with prices ranging from USD 3,468 to USD 21,415, depending on the size and medium of the artwork. As of 2021, the record price for Sol Felpeto at auction is USD 21,415 for Dragon Hairball Z, sold at Ravenel, Taipei in 2021.
There are several stories about Picasso and his cat “Minou”. This story has been a huge inspiration to Multicultural Abstract Artist Sol Felpeto.
Sol Felpeto was born in 1990, in Venezuela and her family settled in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 2001, after many moves with her father’s work. As she grew up and finished high school, she learned many skills, such as horseback riding, and jewelry design. She was attracted to art around that time, even though she had been studying Veterinary Medicine, she decided that she needed to listen to her heart, and go with her creative rush, and in 2012 she traveled back to Madrid to begin studying Fashion Design. Her time spent deep in the study of creative art, she learned how to paint and illustrate. She soon created her own style, mixing her love of animals, in with her art and after graduation in June 2016, she had her very own Art Exhibition in Madrid, where she accompanied other emerging Spanish Artists. That is where she began her path into art. It is a beautiful and exciting story of a young girl following her dreams, listening to her heart, and letting the flow of her interests guide her.Sol paints the most beautiful art, with vibrate colors, stories to tell, and she uses a lot of the cubism style as well. She loves to paint animals, and her true message is about connecting animals with art and telling real stories about them.
