| Biography: |
Born in Santiago de Chile 1964, from a very young age he showed great fascination for painting.
In 1984 he met the Painter Claudio Valenzuela, he was the one who taught him the first steps in painting, and his different techniques In 1985 he met the renowned painter Rene Poblete, professor at the University of Chile and creator of Talleres 619, who with his valuable guidance and his creative obsession produced the first direct and true encounter with art. In 1985 he studied Advertising Graphic Design at Itesa, further accentuating his passion for art. In 1998 he was presented with the opportunity to travel to Europe, the dream of a market that demands quality, talent, and dedication. Inspired by everything related to objects, such as machines, old structures, architectural lines, he participates in art fairs, group exhibitions in galleries, exhibitions and the creation of murals. In all these years, he continues in that artistic search, touring London, Berlin, Eindhoven, Paris and Lisbon, thus enriching his work In 2014 he received a recognition from the Madrid City Council (Honorable Mention of the Los Molinos Painting Contest), and Selected for Exhibition in the Jose Camarón Segorbe Valencia International Painting Contest and Selected for the Camarote Madrid Province of Leon Painting Contest. Which allows you to get even closer to the ultimate goal you seek, to continue creating.
