In the Sky, there is no transition between Red and Blue [only Green and Orange]. Then there is the Earth... and the Brown appears. Earth is the transition between Sky and Water [between Red and Blue]

Born in Mendoza (Argentina) and raised in Granada (Spain) and Grenoble (France), he has been a regular drawer since early childhood.

Mainly autodidact, since 2015 he starts attending to specific workshops in several creative branches (Oil & Watercolor painting, Artistic Creation, Sumi-E, Comic Design, Digital Art, Engraving & Lithography...) and, on a regular basis, to drawing workshops based on nude models at Fine Arts Circle of Madrid.

In 2019, he decides to dedicate himself full-time to drawing and painting. He leaves his profession in Madrid and settles down in the mountains of South of Spain, in Las Alpujarras of Granada, to carry out a work of experimentation with light and color based on direct motif. For this task he explores using different materials and techniques such as Chinese ink, pastel, watercolor, gouache, oil, acrylic, natural pigments, traditional techniques, fluorescent paintings...

In 2023, he settles down in the seaside of Almeria, also in the South of Spain, for continuing exploration with marine motifs and starting training at Art School of Almeria (“Superior Degree in Engraving and Stamping Techniques”).

In these years, he has held several international residencies and exhibitions solo or with other artists, which have been very well received.
