Sobre el Artista


I never attended art school, my life has always been marked by the dualism between artistic creativity and entrepreneurial skills. I consider myself a self-taught, and as such I have always sought autonomy in my way. I love to paint urban landscapes, basically places I visit. Everything starts from a photograph I shoot with a clear idea. I prefer situations in which there is strong color contrasts, where I can express myself better with my technique. Also I paint portraits because I have been always fascinated. I think that being able to create a portrait that be similar to the original is a spell, and I find my greatest satisfaction when that happens. By doing this I always try to balance the two forces that lead me to paint: the first one marked realism the other to a more conceptual simplification of traits.
