Portfolio
This is my online portfolio, a space dedicated to showcasing my artistic and professional journey that spans from 2008 to the present. Here, you will have the opportunity to explore the diverse series of original abstract artworks I have created over the years, each of which represents a unique phase in my evolution as a creator. With special emphasis, I present the most recent series entitled “Beetroots and Other Things” (2023-2024), which reflects my current perspective on everyday topics and nature, permeated by an introspective and innovative perspective.

Púdica Granatum (2011- 2012)
The Púdica Granatum series presents an enchanting variety of paintings by the artist, covering dimensions ranging from large to small. It was created during the period from 2011 to 2012. The larger format pieces stand out for the meticulous work and the deep intensity they emanate.
In the works presented, the pomegranate serves as an inspiring muse, with its mysterious and hidden interior playing a central role.

Perceptions of Body (2008- 2011)
The “Perceptions of the Body” series presents an impressive variety of paintings by the artist, covering works of different sizes – from large to medium and small –, created between 2008 and 2011.
These artworks are explorations into the Core of Existence: A study of the profound internal essence of beings, encompassing humans, animals, and other entities characterized by their unique organic and visceral peculiarities. These amorphous “entities” or “fragments of beings” are brought to life through the spontaneous and flowing movements of the brush, deftly handled with oil paints to create form.
