It is always gratifying when you can contemplate a work of art, and in this case a painting. And with greater reason if it is with the quality of work that is Rubio. Through his work we come to value transparent and pure esthetics. Upon viewing his still lifes, we come to understand that there is no improvisation, but rather a well planned work were the beauty of his fruits and elements are modeled after a color greater than the beauty of the objects themselves. This is achieved with a technique of carefully applying delicately tinted transparencies. In this way his paintings say more than Nature itself, as Van Gogh would have said "Art is man united with Nature".
