At first Arizabalo worked as a graphic designer and only occasionally engaged in photography. And in 2006, he turned his interest exclusively to painting. Arizabalo works in a very realistic style, studying the fall of light on the human body.

Arizabalo's paintings are simple and elegant. The peculiarity of painting is not working with the background, but with the human figure and its expressive contours of the body.

For an artist, only images are important, not the environment where his characters live. His gentle, but at the same time precise strokes create images that, it would seem, are about to descend from the canvas into the real world. Every hair, every crease on the clothes, even the muscles and veins on the arms. No, these are not photographs, these are paintings by Javier Arizabalo!
