My journey began in Argentina, but it really took off after many years of learning to paint figurative art in Chile, and later sculpture in Surrey, England, UK.
I started to explore and experiment with different types of texture, color and media when I moved to Utah, USA. Why? Because I made two series of illustrations for a couple of books published in Argentina: Erotica (2011) and Urbe Barranca (2012).
Things really began to change. I discovered I could paint what I wanted based only on ideas, words, and poetry…
Moved to Denver, USA, 2014. Now alone with my work. Change? Yes!! Absolutely. Visual Games came along… and more than ever images started to move into my head and became paintings.
2016/2017: Searching for someone to guide me, mentor me. I found Mark Brasuell, a conceptual abstractionist. And I’m learning a lot from him and improving on myself as well.
Always changing. Changing is good.. Isn’t it?
