Caballero's characteristic style is abstract-figurative Expressionism. One of his main themes are characters from his imagination with infinite stories, in them we see round and square eyes because, as he says, it is the way that everyone sees the world, through their own experiences. Alexis is a young artist on whom you have to set your eyes, you have to know and recognize his work, because his art is spectacular, and because he is part of the new generation that in a few years will be recognized - even more - as one of the most important artistic currents in Mexico.

In the pictorial work of Jesús Cuevas it is possible to find various techniques, such as French impressionism, due to the handling of color and the atmosphere that is romantic and for all the elements that make it up, which make it a classic. The colors and textures that he creates with artistic techniques capture moods that become the protagonists of each of the pieces.
