Purple Portrait no. 1 Painting

I'm a multidisciplinary artist based on Appleton, Wisconsin but I was born and raised in Mexico City. My fascination for film, fine art and literature propelled me to become a professional photographer, career I've honed for over twenty years. But my enormous creativity and never ending curiosity forced me to expand my horizon, and in 2009, already in my thirties, I enrolled in the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, where I studied film, creative writing and studio art.  Since then, I've written, directed and shot several independent short films, and have drawn many portraits, life stills and abstract compositions. In 2018, I began body painting, and a year later, I took on fine painting and my oeuvre is rapidly growing. I live in Appleton, Wisconsin with my lovely wife, Heidi and our two cats, Chewy and Raffa.
