Maria Paulina Troncoso

Maria Paulina Troncoso, a Chilean artist, draws inspiration from her life at sea with her husband, a renowned sailmaker for historic tall ships. Born into a family of sailors, her paintings reflect the light, rhythm, and energy of the ocean, capturing the unique emotions of a life connected to the sea. Some of her works are even painted directly on retired ship sails. Today, her style leans toward expressionism, with color as the central element. Troncoso’s paintings are held in private collections across Chile, Spain, Morocco, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and beyond, conveying the force and power of nature through each composition.
