His parents, seeing his talent, tried to direct him to the cradle of Cuban art, making an effort to enroll him in the most prestigious school in the country "San Alejandro", after several attempts And denied the possibility, he managed to start his studies at the General Arts Instructors School in 2010. A school that was based on the implementation of revolutionary principles and ethics. During his studies, his dreams of free expression were overshadowed by being silenced due to the lack of freedom of expression in government schools. After completing his studies, his frustration increased because he was not allowed to exhibit his progressive works in any of the spaces created for the young artist in the country. After several attempts to make himself known, he understood that the true artist is the one who develops in a self-taught way. Discovering over the years only what is necessary to modify and perfect his artistic style and individually deciding which concepts and artistic movements will mark or characterize his work. In an almost general way, his works are inspired by changing political and moral concepts, thus expressing the feelings of a people. The high contrasts and the extensive range of colors manifested in his work are the means used by the artist to achieve a subjective reality.
