Painter and sailor to the core, Mauril creates both abstract & expressionistic masterpieces drawing
his inspiration from his profound love of the sea. His utmost fulfillment derives from his innate
ability to get you to vividly visualize what you might otherwise not perceive. Mauril’s paintings and
sundry works using various media are to be found in many private and corporate collections
throughout the Americas and Europe.

Statement
Mauril's work is distinguished by its sculptural, his affiliation with the sea, and the constant concern of
authenticity.
His inspiration seems to be born in the deep waves, cool winds, at the rhythm of the spray that slap’s
you in the face, in the never stoping splash’s, in the mist that envelop’s your body and chill’s you to
the core. Some works are almost monochromatic, while in others, the color appears as the only
motivation. The gesture is languid, emotional on the majority of the picture, but it often ends in abrupt
bursts, shaded spaces that hold the eye as if to stop time.
Mauril's work begins with the chaos. He puts on the table, or on the floor, or on a easel, the canvas
softened by multiple layers of Gesso. "That day, he knows he must paint." Something’s overflowing in
his head, something is waiting to be confirmed. It puts at hand, oil, acrylic, spatula, with mixtures of all
kinds, just like the alchemist in search of the stone phylolophale. After several unsuccessful attempts,
the form is left suspect. The movement says more and more firmly, boldly, with the assurance of a
hand led by an irresistible impulse. He does the subject and he undoes the subject. A sailboat, a
wave or a reef emerges. The artist rejoices.He found. He oversees the corner trowel, encrusted
matter without hesitation.He will fine-tune a few hours, a few days, a few months. The figurative
abstraction becomes a work of art.
Creativity must have first place in his work. It must be inexhaustible because it is the soul of the artist.
The sight of a small boat still moves him, so he must refrain from reducing the boat to its simple
reproduction. The work must translate the vibrations in it, the pleasure of the eyes, movement, the
perpetual discourses of human dedication to the sea and freedom. Each painting is the exercise of a
choice. That we exercises it,refute it, that we come back to it, that is what we mean, when we talk of
creation . Each stroke, each block of paint, each fingerprint, sit’s there in testimony of this final battle
as the hieroglyphics that tell the storys of ancient Egypt.
The artist must be in perpetual revolution, and that's what we recognize in all of the work’s done by
Mauril.
