BIOGRAPHY
SMALL INTRODUCTION:
Hello to everyone who decides to visit this page full of artists, of course, I am not the only one and there will probably be more. of all types of techniques; With mine I touch all the materials, I don't care what material I have to use, of course, my works cannot be considered abstract in the sense of what is usually called that, that is, brushstrokes that wait for the viewer interprets something and that's it—I'm not going to judge them but for me that type of work has a bad approach, nothing more, because for me The work requires thought, analysis, talent and personally a lot of work despite the talent, I believe that although a painter can be considered a genius, he has to have thousands of pages outlined with millions of thoughts about these and above all. what surrounds him, in my phase as a painter I believe that I must be constantly analyzing everything that surrounds me in addition to the work, to know what is happening. image I am going to take to the canvas, to always know what I want to tell the viewer, what I want to communicate. And of course I always bet on the peaceful artist but committed to a non-conformist, changed reality and always with a focus away from the negative, even with guidelines that take us towards positive terrain, that can give hope for something great to humanity. A painting that, although at times it seems terrifying, always tries to solve all the negative aspects that this society presents to us.
I have dedicated my painting to solving the problems that all human beings have, including myself, of course it is difficult to understand, because at the same time I have tried to create a non-existent work, although In it there are images that allow us to touch the present we live in, but above all the analyzes that I carry out, among other things, are focused on changing everything seen in painting until now. Of course it is difficult to separate yourself from the images that you absorb on a daily basis and many of these are present, otherwise it would be very difficult to understand a work that does not touch the earth, the only planet What we know so far and the tool we use to communicate with each other, it doesn't matter what it is in this life, we are here. and from here we absorb 80% of everything.
And after this introduction that makes it minimally clear what my approach in painting is, I go to the personal biography.
In my life, to be honest, I never liked paintings since I was little, those of others of course, I saw them as flat and without much to say, even those of great artists, however I have always been a great draftsman, an art in which I have stood out when I was a child, but to which I did not pay more attention than the moment of its realization, of course although I was given well, I never saved any drawing and I ignored what I was doing, so I threw it away when the time came for reasons of order in my house and because my attitude, yes, has always been to keep There is an order in everything I do, whether it is tidying up my room, going with my friends, presenting a piece of work, etc. For me The order of things is primordial, but of course my order is not that of the rest of humanity, I always carry my personal order and I have always looked for that order in everything, if I couldn't find it and saw that what I had From then on it was impossible for me to change it, I threw it away and that was it. “I am one of those people who do not complicate their lives with the elements of evil and disorder.” and as soon as I recognize it and do it with great ease, I don't work for the change... Not because I don't care, no, but because from my own experience, my analyzes and a sense of intelligence that I have had since I was born, I see clearly what hurts and what doesn't—I'm 5 years old and I've failed 3 times and doubtfully—let's say.
I'm not going to get into hidden sections of my life, because I have them, but I don't want people to enter labyrinths that they won't understand if I don't specify them clearly; and that would take me maybe more than 100 pages.
here It is rather the biography of the painter and his work, not an easy path by the way, although it may seem that way... This is not a complaint, it is reality, my reality-
When I started I started to paint seriously, because we will really talk about the 80s and that happened when I had a few works completed, maybe when I had 20 or 22 works, then I started painting. I began to take it seriously and to glimpse the path, a path that opened up. in a futile and even ridiculous but forceful way.
My vision for art began in adolescence with a hashish joint; which leads everyone to become something “stupid” Let's say just to give it a meaning - no insult intended - it led me to see everything clearly, and when I say everything, I say the entire mechanics of life, interior and exterior, it was as if I were trying I learned from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and I no longer wanted to continue with the drug, even though a few times and to be with my friends and not lose their friendship, I would take a few puffs or try other substances that I really didn't. They did a great job to me, in the end I tried just once to try everything they gave me but nothing opened up any more opportunities for me. There was no other way, they only allowed me to change my physical state a little and little else or see some strange things to which I did not give much importance because the puff of my first joint, I became totally immune and left The rest will surprise me.
Walking with my friends on drugs, I only found one traffic jam that I decided to get out of. I had to break down to take advantage of the window that my first puff had opened for me and I abandoned all my friends, which was a difficult experience for me that still lasts to this day. It was very hard for me. because I was an extroverted, pleasant and endearing person, but as I saw that my friends did not know how to get out of the terrain they chose and did not get any productive benefit from it, I understood. I had to abandon them and that led me to states of constant sadness and depression, but I couldn't continue with them because they entered worlds of hard drugs which destroyed some of them and now they are no longer in this world. world. Continuing with my biography of the artist I have become, I first dedicated myself to music and in a short time I was composing songs, some fundamentally dedicated to sex due to the age I was, but then I began to write songs. I started to take it more seriously and studied and studied, to compose music with quality and better guarantees of output, since I found I had an exit with the same, only it happened something that I can't explain and I abandoned it and out of boredom at not being able to continue there. and my concern for everything, I turned to painting. As I said at the beginning of this writing, I only started the painting. So as not to get bored, nothing serious and while I was painting, I was going to visit museums to make a comparison and see the works of the great artists that we have in Spain... Which at this point I think that as innovation, creativity, magic something new, There are no better ones in the world and the drawings of comic artists, those of the Spanish in my opinion are the best, because a simple line almost gives you an understanding of what the artist wants to convey.< br />
Spain has very good, very good artists, many of whom have never seen the light of day, especially due to social intransigence, the good nature of promoting people who only have an Art degree as a flag that is of no use to them. more than to wield it since they lack talent and much more work behind them, they pursued their art career because they had to do something, but they never achieved more than their participation thanks to their participation. to goodism, pietism and money of the rich... Among the works of painters exhibited today there is real garbage and garbage in art is extended by 80 out of 100, a percentage so high that it covers the great artists that Spain has.
A sad shame that the rich have control over art, art that they have turned into a putrid business.
But changing the subject and returning to my biography, once I realized the work that the work required, the effort and the ground that I could tread developing it, I began. I started to take it seriously and I have been in it for more than 40 years, always trying to create something new, something unbeatable that involves work, effort, analysis, imagination, struggle to face the dirty currents of This world and not being dragged along and other virtues that in the long run have cost me hours and hours of work in my study without even going out to have fun and a lot of investment.
From there I have moved in art worlds above all and I have been in the Fine Arts Circle for more than 30 years.
My resume is not very extensive, but in this society it is evident that truth, perseverance, that is, virtues no longer have a place in a world full of lies and rather subjective.
And right now and due to this lack of virtues, immersed in a maelstrom of seeing who is the most capable, in reality we are walking down a black path about which I do not want to predict anything, because my mistakes are little. We are and I prefer not to comment, it already hurts me to even get it right.

MY ARTISTIC APPROACH:
MY ARTISTIC APPROACH I THINK I HAVE MADE CLEAR IN MY BIOGRAPHY BUT I WILL MAKE A SUMMARY:
I intend to create a different work, but never a comfortable work that the rich will say yes to me for being good, I would prefer to break the more than a thousand paintings that I have than for them to say yes to me for being good .
It is a direct work, built from the imagination and feeling of the artist.
I call her a DIRECT SYMBOLIST, putting feeling, vision, interpretation and the casuistry of the moment in the same bag.
As José said Ortega y Gasset (1883-1955) (I am myself and my circumstances), the Spanish philosopher synthesized the belief of that human beings cannot be isolated from their circumstances.
And so It is art that is where Gasset's truth about our lives is clearly seen.
Unless the artist we are talking about has a lucid mind of a thousand out of 100 (and I don't know if he does), no artist can be too objective with his works over time.
The events of our lived lives belong to another world-We talk about the past to understand each other, but I consider another world.
It is difficult to determine what approach you are going to give to the work, because when the time comes, the circumstance arises that even if you have it, you do not know exactly how it is presented and influences everything. It even brings us what we do not see and that we cannot predict, not even a machine created for such an event with 10,000 out of a hundred correct answers could predict a special circumstance, we see it every day (it can be an example small but valid) with the weatherman: Today he says that tomorrow it will rain and the day dawns and we have to put on short sleeves and turn on the air conditioning at home, therefore every step we take is dependent on the situation. subject to the circumstance that we live, will live and have lived-
That's why I say that we are always in different worlds, to explain it in some way - the one we forget because it is past, the one we live in because it is present and the one we will live in because it is future. But of which we do not know even half of their energy. In each case, there are smells, flavors, incidents, joys, sadness that make up those moments and it is those moments with their causality that I like to question in my works. I think that for now man will not be able to do this. understand it, perhaps in the future a new man will appear along with the evolution that will give us the keys to all this, I am now a neophyte investigating how I can shed light on this.
And there What my work focuses on, hence that many of my works are unintelligible—There is no one who understands them- Only me. But even I would make mistakes in the explanation because everything changes constantly and my explanations about them fall short.
I do not have such a high memory that I can perceive everything that happens to me. around 100 x 100. I'm just trying. Of course my work is not the reality that is expected, it is a reality that we see very little with our eyes and that our body, soul or heart, as each one wants to interpret, is influenced by it. there forming a whole.
