I paint spying galaxies, sidereal, boreal and marine worlds… the universe in motion. Come and watch them through my arty windows.   ***

I paint spying on galaxies and the sidereal, boreal and marine worlds… the universe in motion. I came to admire them through my art windows.

I create small observatories, fusing my inner world with outer space and the northern lights while I spy on distant galaxies and the universe in motion. Like my father, I am passionate about the mysteries of astronomy, eternity and infinity.

I invent concepts and philosophies that I express with ranges of color and semi-liquid shapes, sometimes vaporous and even fiery. With my painting I reflect my soul, my heart and my ideas, transformed into art.

I am a citizen of the world who lives between Marbella and Madrid, although I spend a lot of time on the moon, that is, in the universe of my dreams... almost as infinite as the universe. 

I have had a passion for art since I can remember. I am from Madrid, I traveled I went to New York to study and worked in the art world in Manhattan for 12 years. I came back I went to Spain where I worked at the March Foundation, Museum of Abstract Art and Max Estrella Gallery with my brother Alberto. Now I live in Marbella where I founded a cultural club: Friends of Culture. Since 1992 I have published in magazines and newspapers. I also give lectures and seminars, such as Art & Spirit and Art Surfing. I have a long-term project: Museum in the sky. Recently, I am looking for sponsors for two new projects: Museum of Icons and Museum of Sculpture. I am about to publish my first book “Art Passion - For the love of Art”.
I have been painting since October 2023. It has been a process of antidepressant catharsis after the death of my father. Starting to paint has helped me regain the light after a period of darkness.
