A dream Painting

Burgos (Spain), 1980 Following a friend’s insight, I started drawing in my late twenties. At the beginning I was some sort of outsider or naif artist. This changed when I applied for a painting workshop with Antonio López and met other painters. My approach became more conscious and truthful to the way I see. The trigger for my paintings are sensations and thoughts which appear suddenly or over time and are mostly related to introspection and social interaction. I first visualise the painting and then take photographs to guide me or paint from life. As I gain more understanding of painting materials and techniques, I am careful to keep that fluky initial impulse that drove me to paint when I knew nothing.
