He seems to constantly break up the cityscape and redefine its basic coordinates from a starting point of great emotional subjectivity. Ortona’s landscapes are never objective but reconstructed from unusual standpoints; they are reinvented and overlapped using intensely emotional spatial harmonies and discords, all in a vibrant painting style consisting in sudden shifts. According to Antonio Lopez Garcia, he succeeds in “building a perception of depth, especially in the sky and distance. The dark tones in the foreground, the hints of green in the grass, the concordance between those bright yellows and all the luminous colours suggest nature and distance, all the distance between the landscape and the artist.”
