The first time I wrote my name was as a drawing, each letter was a personage. That´s the way I understand the surrounding world and the sensations it evokes in me. My work is an illustrated album of my feelings. my life in each different moment. The themes are contradictions within themselves, innocent and erotic. Each subject is attractive yet disturbing. The girls I paint are seductive and contain a hint of melancholy in a rich world of colorful watercolors.

I studied Fine Arts at the University of the Basque Country, in Bilbao. I took advantage of all the grants I could, that´s how I got into “Bradford and Ikkley community college”, and the University of Valencia. Then I moved to Madrid and lived there for 5 years, where I learned graphic design and took a postgrade Magazine´s design course at the “Istituto europeo de diseño”. Now I work as an illustrator and graphic designer in my home-grown city, Bilbao.
