THE TWILIGHT ZONE.

The article in the Artist's Magazine features Spanish-born painter Alberto Ortega, who explores themes of conformity and loneliness in American suburban life through his eerie and foreboding panoramic scenes set in a 1950s suburb. Ortega creates miniature models of suburban architecture and street scenes to spark ideas for his paintings, drawing inspiration from everyday observations and literature. His paintings often depict twilight settings with deep shadows and dramatic lighting, inviting viewers to ponder open-ended narratives from a voyeuristic perspective. Ortega's classical painting process involves a subdued palette and delicate paint touch to create rich depth and atmosphere in his work. [Extracted from the article]
