Sacred valley of the Incas-Cusco-Peru Print

I was born in Montevideo Uruguay, and I have lived in Argentina for many years. Since my childhood and adolescence, I have had a family influence at the level of knowledge of art, be it through books on the history of art, books with illustrations of famous painters and artists. sculptors, visits to museums and through training in different branches of the arts in a family workshop where I was able to experiment with different materials, techniques and supports. Life led me to work in activities far from art for many years and just in 2019 I decided to dedicate myself almost entirely to this wonderful world of artistic creation. That is why I consider myself a self-taught artist. During the years 2019 until 2021 I attended art classes with Mrs. Carmen Pando, a graduate in Visual Arts / UNA and a university professor, which has allowed me to experience another more professional level in my creations in terms of colors, textures, composition, and art history and for that I will always be grateful. When I face the blank canvas, I do it with a spirit of experimentation and struggling carefully to give an aesthetic sense to the message that I want to leave in the work, with absolute freedom regarding the theme that inspires me, the materials, colors and techniques used. In any case, I am undoubtedly influenced and attracted by different artistic movements such as impressionism, fauvism, surrealism and fantastic art. The reasons that inspire me to convey my emotions are varied and reveal the issues that challenge me as a human being: the cosmos, nature, caring for the environment, social denunciation or simply capturing on canvas landscapes of places where I have lived or visited. For me the artwork is a window to the world of the artist where the observer can get into that world if he wishes and can communicate with the artist in a universal language without barriers of time, ideological, racial, age or gender. It is for this reason and above all to leave a legacy to my children and to those who want to observe my artworks that I think I will continue painting as long as I live.
