"Cantar del alma" Painting

"I have always been drawn to the ephemeral — fleeting light, fading memories, the quiet presence of history beneath the surface of things. Born with a pencil in hand and a restless spirit, I grew up moving from place to place, each new landscape leaving its imprint on me. Art became my way of holding onto what might otherwise be lost, a means to capture time itself.

Now based in Mijas, a whitewashed village on Spain’s Southern coast, I find endless inspiration in the rugged sierra, the ever-changing blues of the Mediterranean, and the nearby, hazy outlines of Morocco's Rif mountains. My work, whether painted or photographed, is a meditation on transience. I am captivated by the way shadows stretch and dissolve, how forgotten walls whisper their histories, how a fleeting essence lingers as it vanishes.

Each piece I create, each picture I take, is a fragment of time suspended — an echo of something seen, felt, or remembered. Through layers of pigment, texture, and light, I explore the tension between permanence and impermanence, inviting the viewer to step into a world where beauty is found in the fugitive, and every shadow holds a tale waiting to be dreamed.
