Omar Ortiz was born in 1977 in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico. In 2002 he attended his first oil paint classes with the artist Carmen Alarcón, who he considers his main teacher. Ortiz currently works with oil painting because he considers it the noblest technique.
His work is characterized as minimalistic - hyperrealism where the human body is predominate whit texture-filled backgrounds and a magical use of fabric. “His paintings act like intimate pieces, trapped in themselves, outside of space and context”. He has showed in Mexico, Spain, Netherlands and London.
