The Artist
Emilio Sauma Jr. was born in Havana, Cuba. Sauma is influenced by the old Cuban Masters.
He has worked with many masters, including Mijares, Carreo, and his mentor and friend Cundo Bermudez. Saumas use of the bold line technique allows for the expression of his Cuban-American experience. Artwork by Sauma is diverse, brilliant, and full of unique details! Sauma has received numerous awards for his many charitable contributions and dedication to raising awareness of the arts.

I strive to achieve a balance of realism and artistic expressionism in all my work
