Luis Moya Art



I’m Luis Moya, a self-taught creator from Havana, Cuba, now creating in San Francisco, California. My work is deeply rooted in abstraction, but beyond that, it’s a reflection of my connection to the earth, the sea, and the healing power of creativity.
I create my own paint using locally foraged soil pigments, charcoal, and crushed seashells—materials that carry the essence of the landscapes around me. Each piece is further framed with reclaimed wood, giving new life to materials that once thrived in these lands. I also incorporate rain, stream, and Pacific Ocean water into my process, allowing nature to shape my work in unpredictable ways.
Art, for me, is more than just creation—it’s a form of meditation. Working with soil grounds me, bringing a deep sense of mindfulness and healing. Through my art, I aim to capture the raw beauty of nature while fostering a connection between creativity and well-being.
This space is where I share my journey—exploring the art of making, the power of nature, and how creativity can be a path to inner peace. Whether you’re an artist, a nature lover, or simply someone looking for inspiration, I invite you to join me in this exploration of art, earth, and mindfulness.
