Welcome to Art With Alejandro – Eugene’s Paint & Sip Studio

Alejandro Sarmiento is a visual artist based in Eugene, Oregon, specializing in acrylic painting and drawing. With over a decade of professional experience, his work spans large-scale city murals, private commissions, and original pieces born from imagination. Alejandro also teaches art classes that invite students of all levels into the creative process.

His artistic journey began in childhood, scribbling on any surface he could find. Though partially trained at Lane Community College, Alejandro is largely self-taught, having honed his craft through years of dedicated, near-daily practice. What drives him most is the joy of creation—a passion that fuels the wide range of subjects found in his work.

Currently he is the owner and creator of Art With Alejandro in Eugene, where he teaches Paint and Sip classes and displays and sells his works and works of local artists.

One lesser-known fact about Alejandro is that he is red-green colorblind, a condition that has shaped his unique approach to color. By mastering the color wheel and developing a strong awareness of value and contrast, he’s cultivated a distinctive, expressive style. When needed, he embraces collaboration, often asking others for input with humility and humor.

Outside the studio, Alejandro is also a lifelong practitioner of martial arts. These twin passions—art and martial arts—have been the core disciplines of his life, each feeding the other with balance, discipline, and flow.
