Autobiographical notes

Painting for me - the continuation of life.
She - my parallel world, is absolutely filled with creativity. Painting, I express my thoughts, actions, events.
In essence - this is translated into the language of plastic sensation and perception. This - plastic myths, they - and the magic of a man, and the whole volume of human feelings and thoughts.

Criticism

.. For Omar Godinez is a constant mystery link between man and nature. This puzzle is the relationship of reality and myth. Drawing from Omar Godinez reliably supports picturesque shell, charged lyricism.
His painting is very poetic.
Waldo Gonzalez. The magazine "Bohemia", Cuba, p.58, July 30, 1993.

... Omar Godinez, the representative is not enough known in our country, contemporary Latin American art.
... However, this is deeply subjective and intuitive method of exploration of artistic space, rooted in national tradition, does not prevent an artist to use the entire spectrum of contemporary artistic means.
Working with a constantly updated language of the occult, turning to the eternal themes of the sacral in man, Omar Godinez, of course, can count on the active response from the audience.

Elena Romanova. Art critic, L Gallery, Moscow, Exhibition "Ofrenda", June 14, 1995
