What inspires you?
My inspiration is Nature, all types of art, my family, technology, science.
Describe your creative process.
I start painting without having planned it and as I do the work and at the end, sometimes over a long time, I find the meaning of different parts within the whole of the artwork.
What are 3 words that best describe your work?
Love, Nature, Positive vibes
Who are some artists that have influenced your work?
A lot of painters as Picasso, Miró, Tanguy, Goya, Gauguin, Hopper, Dalí, Hockney, Nicolas de Staël, Lugrís, Quessada, Segura-Torrella, but the most is the musician Mike Oldfield.
What is the most important tool when creating your work?
I made my own canvases and I use a glass recycled sand. I usually use brushes and the pc.
What is the best piece of advice you have been given?
I think it is advice that I gave myself since I was little and it is to always act to my liking, to feel comfortable with what I do and not what others tell you you should do.
Where do you go for inspiration?
I am a studio painter and in the summer I paint outdoors but I believe that everything I paint is the result of my contact with nature, with my family and with music for the most part. I guess I remember what I like and then I combine it when creating the artworks.
