Original oil painting by Guillo Pérez 3 · Dominican-American contemporary artist · Available at Marcolina's Fine Arts Gallery, Tampa, Florida · Ships worldwide

Gilgamesh has been on Guillo's mind for years. The king who had everything and still could not outrun his own mortality. The man who built walls, fought gods, and lost his best friend, and then spent the rest of his life trying to figure out what any of it meant.

Gilgamesh II continues the dialogue Guillo started in Gilgamesh I. The work has matured. The figure is less about heroism and more about the weight of having lived. This is Gilgamesh after the losses, after the adventures, trying to make sense of what remains.

Guillo brings his Bauhaus Budo philosophy to this work, the geometry of structure, the intuition of movement, color used as emotional force. The result is a painting that reads as myth but feels completely contemporary. The oldest story in the world, told by someone who knows what it is to carry a lineage.

About the Artist

Guillo Pérez 3 is a Dominican-American painter, co-founder, educator, and cultural ambassador whose artwork and vision help define the identity of Marcolina's Fine Arts Gallery. Born in Santo Domingo and raised in Queens, New York, he is the grandson of Maestro Guillo Pérez, one of the Dominican Republic's most respected painters and a recognized figure in the U.S. State Department's Art in Embassies program, and the son of master painter Willy Pérez. Three generations of unbroken serious painterly practice. His work hangs in the permanent collection of the Skylands Museum of Art alongside Salvador Dalí and Pablo Picasso, and is held by private collectors in over 48 countries.

Working from Tampa, Florida, he has developed Bauhaus Budō: a synthesis of Bauhaus design discipline and the meditative rigor of martial arts. His work has been exhibited across the United States, the Caribbean, and Europe. The New York Times recognized him as a "Star Maker."
