I still remember, a long time ago, when at just 16 years old I took my easel, my paints, all the excitement in the world and I went to the countryside in my native Navarra to capture in my canvases all the landscapes that my sight could encompass. He painted everything, streets, trees, rivers, mountains, etc. My self-taught training forced me to investigate and experiment with all the techniques and all the styles. The passage of time and the influences of painters so important in my career
such as Basquiat, Warhol, Equipo Crónica, etc. They made me change the wine cellar for a Colon bottle. and the landscape of my land by Batman, Tin Tin, Snow White or Mickey Mouse.
I started a constant search to reach a comfortable point in artistic creation, experimenting with all types of materials and
techniques; everything was processed to define the character of my work.
Nowadays, my paintings are the reflection of my life; advertising, fashion, urban art, comics, television, graphic design,
music and, of course, countless icons of Pop culture, everything is processed and captured in my creations. Paintings with a great visual charge in which irony, humor and ambiguity are very present; there is no message in them
determined, the everyday is what is truly important, the spectator is really the one who has to make the interpretation of what he sees.
I consider myself an urbanite, the big city offers me countless stimuli, themes, data, images, scenes, etc. and I just have to order it, process it and capture it in my works. I paint on board (acrylics, sprays, collage, stencil, etc.) because I need a support that resembles the hardness of a wall, a wall or a door
and I try to make the base of my creations look like pieces of that decadent street full of old and worn posters. Now after several years of national and international exhibitions and art fairs, my work can be seen in many European countries like this such as: USA, Dubai, Mexico, Colombia and Panama.
