The title of each painting ideally hints at both its physical appearance and the poetic ambiguity of the long journey that brings it into being. A title should attach a painting to the world beyond its appearance, the world that claims a voice that speaks to the viewer of its unseen message. A fellow artist and friend, Adam Narcross, once said, “Eduardo’s paintings are far from mute. All you have to do is listen, and the whisper you hear is the music that comes from the hand of one of the gentlest souls to grace canvas with the loving caress of a brush or palette knife.”
