He trained at the San Carlos School of Fine Arts in Valencia and at Sant Jordi in Barcelona, and his style was enriched by travels to Paris, Rome, Vienna and London. Beltrán Messa specialized in rural and urban landscapes, showing a marked preference for nature. His work, of a classical approach, stands out for its serenity, balance and nuanced luminism, in the spirit of Claudio de Lorena and the Barbizon School, as well as impressionist influences. Yellow, green and ochre tones predominate in his palette; light and the Mediterranean sea are protagonists in his painting, along with scenes of lively, rainy cities such as Barcelona and Valencia. He also experimented with mixed techniques such as collage, using newspaper paper. His works are in Spanish and international collections (Germany, France, USA, Saudi Arabia). He was a prolific artist, consistent in drawing and in perceiving details. In short, Beltrán Messa is recognized for his harmonious landscapes, masterful treatment of light and color, and his ability to portray nature and the urban environment with great sensitivity.
