Joaquin Valdez is a self-taught Peruvian-American artist whose paintings of interiors are vibrant, nostalgic, and filled with narrative. His works depict pastel-toned, light-filled domestic spaces—living rooms, poolside patios, and quiet corners—rendered with graphic clarity and emotional depth. Each scene is carefully constructed with symbolic objects and subtle storytelling, inviting viewers to imagine the lives that unfold within. With a background in advertising, Valdez brings a strong sense of composition and visual rhythm to his art. His interiors feel both personal and idealized—curated spaces that balance joy, memory, and introspection.
