"Face It" is a collection of figurative paintings in large scale of women in different moods. In Bivar’s portraiture, the human face is characterized by two colors. Yet up close in the smaller detail, he uses collaged images from Marvel comics to the extent that the viewer's eye can become aware of a universe containing thousands of other images.

Luis Bivar is a Portuguese contemporary figurative artist who lives and works in Lisbon. As an Art Director, he won the first edition of the European Design Modulex Award, all while painting and exhibiting his work. His long time pursuit of color and comic strips has led him to establish himself successfully in Portugal as well as in Northern Europe.

Bivar makes a point of showing imperfection in his paintings for he believes that a work in progress should be spontaneous, and that “error” is part of any artists’ expression. He believes that new media is a permanent challenge and explores various techniques in his artwork including drawing, mixed media, and more recently, sculpting.
