Belisario ContrerasBelisario Contreras was born in Valparaiso, Chile on June 28, 1916 and lived in Washington, DC until his death on March 31, 1990. While contemporary in style, his paintings are strong in impressionistic feeling. He used various techniques to achieve subjective feelings and thought, rather than a pictorial concept. He created an atmospheric perspective to represent feelings through images, form, symbolism and color, which he felt expressed the essence of life.
