Connected souls

“Connected Souls” is a series of visionary watercolor paintings that explores the connection between the human figure and animals.

“The artworks show faces and bodies with animals such as elephants, giraffes, zebras, and birds, creating images in which both presences connect and complement each other.”

Each piece is an original artwork where human and animal merge, forming compositions that explore the relationship between people and nature.

I am Toti Cuesta, a watercolor artist with a unique visual language

I paint worlds where humanity, nature, and emotion coexist in harmony, creating scenes that seem to emerge from a dream.

Through watercolor, I explore the feminine universe, and the strength of nature, giving shape to artworks that invite contemplation, inner silence, and a deeper emotional connection.

About Me

“Cuesta’s genius lies in her ability to transcend traditional boundaries of representation. Her use of delicate yet precise lines draws attention to the remarkable detail in both the facial expression of the woman and the intricacies of the statues above her. The way she balances hyperrealism with a dream-like surrealism creates a tension that pulls the viewer deeper into the work. This technique is indicative of Cuesta's unparalleled mastery of form and her innovative approach to narrative composition in visual art”.

“Like Frida Kahlo or René Magritte, Toti Cuesta incorporates symbolism with a deeply personal dimension, transforming her pieces into portals to alternate realms where reality intertwines with imagination.”
