Garcia's series, "Abstract Elegance", reveals the innate beautify of his natural environment.
Garcia expresses this vision through refined visual patterns and earthly tones,
which reflect his responses to social situations and nature. It is through this
motif, which Garcia produces his series of poetic assemblages. In the series, each
piece offers a unique lens through which the viewer can perceive and appreciate
nature. Moreover, each piece reveals expressive colors, found objects and
textural surfaces to reinforce nature's beauty and complexity.
One of the more
light-hearted ways which Garcia represents nature is through the lens of
idealization. In his work, "Monarch Butterly", he depicts graceful
lines etched into a light pink surface and a perfectly symmetrical butterfly as
the central image. A sun radiates over the butterfly, complimenting the serene
pinks and beiges to transmit a feminine and nostalgic innocence. 
Garcia also represents
nature through a supernatural lens in his piece, "Mermaid Goddess".
This work offers an enchanting atmosphere inspired by Western folklore. One
sees a mermaid etched into a sandy colored background surrounded by symbols of
the sea: an ornate starfish, floating swimmers and beautiful plants. To enhance
the theme of a dreamy sea world, Garcia covers the Mermaid with texture that
resonates as rough coral, brilliantly evoking myth and magic.
Another notable piece in
this series is the "Observatory Life" which examines nature through
the lens of darkness. The work's focal point reveals a cross to evoke a
spiritual presence, while the background shows a dark city facing the wrath of
a thunderous night sky. To enhance this awe-inspiring spectacle, Garcia frames
this scene around a ruptured-looking surface painted with bluish, algae-like
colors. Overall, the rich organic surface and the intense weather reinforces
nature's role as powerful and overwhelming.
Through these multiple lenses, Garcia offers his viewers
wondrous perspectives of nature's beauty.
