ViaNica.com | May 17, 2008

In total, the exposition contains over 20 aquarelles, made on paper and canvas by Betancourt. The Cuban artist currently resides in Nicaragua, but originates from Santiago de Cuba, a colonial city with strong resemblances to Granada, according to Juanita Bermúdez, director of the Galería Códice.
The paintings are soft, with strokes that are more implied than defined, and show excellent control of light, colors, and tones. This is the first exposition by the artist in Nicaragua and all works can be purchased.
