Abstract painting and that quality of representing something different for each viewer makes it unique and interesting. In that vast universe of the abstract, the abstract pointillism, makes you think, imagine and recreate a work, each viewer can see something different and that is that the painter creates the work and the public multiplies it. The artistic work of Gabino Amaya Cacho is innovative in that area, well for him, and he was making interesting paintings such as Neptune, El Morralero, Concert for Venus, Girls playing in the tree, Icarus and Daedalus and The dream of Jacob.
