Visions of Ayahuasca JoLu Amaringo

I am Jose Luis Vasquez Gonzales, known as JoLu Amaringo, I was born in the cradle of art on December 5, 1991, in the city of Pucallpa, Peru. At the same my celebrated grandfather, Pablo Amaringo Shuña, flew to Japan to present one of his well known exhibitions on International Amazonian Visionary Art

During my life in my grandfather Pablo Amaringo’s house with my father Juan Vasquez Amaringo and my mother Lidia Gonzales Laulate, I drank countless stories that I heard in frequent meetings around a table. I also drank the vocation for the art of painting.

At 6 years of age, I began to transfer my inspiration and imagination to paper using tempera paint, with the guidance and teaching of my grandfather Pablo Amaringo, over the years I learned to use the technique of acrylic painting on canvas. Today I paint in acrylic and oil, the visions of ayahuasca and neo Amazonico styles, all thanks to my dear grandfather Pablo Amaringo Shuña.
