Alvaro Linares’ journey as an artist is one that began almost as soon as he could walk. Raised in a world filled with colors, stories, and creative expression, Alvaro has been painting since childhood, letting his art become a natural extension of his view on life. From those early moments, art wasn’t just a hobby—it was a calling. Whether through a brush, a camera, or a script, he has always been captivated by the power of visual storytelling.
As a photographer, filmmaker, and scriptwriter, Alvaro’s work transcends traditional boundaries. His background is a rich tapestry of artistic disciplines, each feeding into the next. His photography captures raw, intimate moments that reveal the truth beneath the surface, while his films weave narratives that linger long after the final scene. For Alvaro, every project is about creating an experience that connects with people on an emotional level—something that not only looks beautiful but tells a deeper story.
His roots in painting laid the foundation for his diverse creative pursuits. The act of painting taught him about composition, color, and the importance of detail—all of which have translated into his work behind the camera. This natural progression from painter to photographer, filmmaker, and scriptwriter has allowed Alvaro to tell stories across multiple mediums, each influencing the other and adding new dimensions to his work.
In his filmmaking, Alvaro blends his passion for storytelling with a visual aesthetic rooted in his years as a painter and photographer. His scripts are infused with the same attention to detail and emotion that characterize his art, resulting in films that feel as though they have been painted onto the screen, scene by scene.
Throughout his career, Alvaro has remained driven by the belief that art is a tool for communication and connection. Whether capturing a fleeting moment through a photograph or crafting a script that speaks to universal human experiences, his goal has always been to create work that resonates with audiences on a deep level. His personal journey as an artist has led him to explore a wide range of disciplines, yet at the core of it all is a desire to express the world as he sees it—vivid, emotional, and alive.
Today, Alvaro continues to push the boundaries of his creative vision, building on his origins as a painter and expanding into new realms of artistic expression. His latest venture, EL PATIO, is a testament to his evolution as an artist—bringing together his love for art, storytelling, and Spanish culture in a way that invites others to experience the beauty and complexity of his creative world.
