However, "El Torros" transcends mere representation, delving into deeper themes of life and death, passion and perseverance. The bull depicted in the painting becomes a symbol of resilience, embodying the innate human desire to confront challenges with unwavering determination.

With each brushstroke, the artist invites viewers to contemplate the dualities of existence - the delicate balance between chaos and order, destruction and creation. "El Torros" is not merely a visual spectacle; it is a profound exploration of the human experience, inviting us to confront our own inner bulls and embrace the dance of life with courage and conviction.
