Aquí intenté algo nuevo: frotar el papel Yupo con polvo de pigmento rojo (por lo que obtuve una base de tono anaranjado) y luego apliqué varias capas de acuarela líquida.
Mi intención fue hacer algo a caballo entre la abstracción y el simbolismo, por lo que añadí elementos que representasen los dos bandos que se enfrentaron en la Guerra Civil española: los colores de la bandera republicana legítima y el negro (que ni siquiera es un color) para representar la deplorable dictadura que vino después de la guerra.

I excelled in drawing since I was little and although as a young man I attended drawing and painting classes in my native Alcázar de San Juan (Ciudad Real), I abandoned the practice at the age of 20.
But my creativity continued to emerge through the word, thanks to my two decades as a translator, and by running and creating role-playing games.
I am now an expert in localization and user experience. Great connoisseur of Lovecraftian themes. And I have designed and supervised role-playing games.
Two years ago teleworking gave me the time I needed, so I picked up art where I left it years before and I'm developing my abstract facet guided by the Madrid-based artist from Granada, Araceli García.
My works are enriched by my understanding of the word. As a visual thinker, I capture the abstract impressions that concepts project into my mind. I don't like to repeat myself, so I work on several different projects and experiment with various techniques.
Humanity painted in the caves to, through sympathetic magic, favor the hunt for what it represented. With my works I turn the tables, creating a kind of voodoo dolls with which to ruthlessly correct this spoiled world through "unsympathetic magic".
