In 1831 Charles Darwin began a journey that would last almost 5 years. During that time, the young scientist dedicated himself to studying all kinds of plants and animals that he found, demonstrating an unusual capacity for observation.

In 1831 Charles Darwin began a journey that would last almost 5 years. During that time, the young scientist dedicated himself to studying all kinds of plants and animals that he found, demonstrating an unusual capacity for observation.
In the diary of this trip, there are already notes that suggest the ideas that would revolutionize our vision of the world.

This work constitutes an expressionist representation of a field notebook of the unknown, worked with gesture and intuition, with a lost gaze...

The title refers to the fact that the first forms of life arose in the sea and many of those marine genes that we share with beings as simple as a jellyfish or an amoeba are still in us.

I'm an expressionist abstract painter. I make lyrical paintings, based on color, texture and energy. I try to connect with the most ancient part of my brain, the least educated area.

I develop my work in 2 phases, the first one is the most intuitive part of the work, I create interest without thinking a lot, without judge anything and giving to myself opportunities to create interest. In the second phase, I work in a more logical way, working the composition, values and details.I work with acrylics, alcohol inks and spray painting mainly.
