Las Musas Print - Limited Edition of 1

I was born in Panama City in 1962, briefly thereafter, my family moved to Port Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, where we stayed 8 years and started my early schooling. We moved back to Panama where I attended high school. A year after my graduation my family, once again, decided to relocate overseas, this time in Milan, Italy. Since my early childhood I was told I was gifted in drawing and painting. However, it was in Milan where my interest in art really developed as a result of my technical education in graphic design. I decided to get a formal education in art after a visit to El Prado in Madrid in 1983. Ever since my passion for art has evolved. My first year in art education was in the newly open Nueva Academia in Milano, a private art academy, whose teaching staff included Luigi Veronesi and Gianni Colombo and several others talented Italian artists . After a year, some us decided to move to the state own Academia di Brera, were we continued attending the classical and figurative school for a year. I graduated in 1988 and stated working in various design shops and in a editorial group as a Art Director. I remained in Italy after my family moved to other overseas locations and finally to Panama in 1991. My eleven years spent in Milan came to an end after short visit to Panama City and In 1993, I moved back to Panama. It was three years after the US invasion and the end on the Noriega Dictatorship.. After living, studying and working for some many years in Europe, my return to Panama required re-adjustments both on a personal and cultural ways; a long process. My professional career in Panama started, working in the advertising sector. Eventually, I went on my own and founded a commercial studio based mainly on graphic design. Today, I teach, work and paint and continue my real passion in life...Art.
