Dorian Vallejo was born in an artistic family and he started to draw before he could walk. His strong attachment to traditional media and figure led him to portraiture and focus on personal work, where he explores his other artistic interests. These days Vallejo spends most of his time creating paintings and drawings for sale through galleries.

Firstly, he used a sort of dream world of floating figures, forests, and natural motifs to suggest the realm of the unconscious and the duality of existence because it assisted him to express a philosophical ideal of heroism which corresponds to his sense of fife as he believed it could be and ought to be.

 “Much of the art I create engages a fascination I have with several ideas that overlap both philosophically and aesthetically. I’m interested in the psychology of our inner selves, the conscious exploration and the interplay between the two realms of existence. Essentially, I see that process and our challenge to balance the lighter and darker sides of our persona as a beautiful dance”, he stated on his website.
