Ramon Pujol was born in Olot, Spain in 1947. His early talent as a gifted artist was met with encouragement and clear acceptance by his family. As such, his first academic training was at the Escola de Belles Artes de Olot. From this training he was granted the opportunity to study under the masterful teaching of Lluis Carbonell and later Gussinye. Initially, Pujol insisted on the use of the palette knife. Gradually the palette knife gave way to the systematic use of brushes. With this change his paintings began to reveal a deep understanding and interpretation of depth, light and atmosphere. The meticulous style of Pujol renders a level of distinction that sets his work apart from other painters. As such, he has received gold medals at the Autumn Salon in Marseille, France and the Salon in Evian, France, plus countless awards in his native country of Spain.
