Artist Statement:
I started to study painting
only three years ago, but I
always made drawings and, when
I started to work with
Journalism, even tried to
became an illustrator, without
success. At the time, I was
very shy and did not believe
that I would have a future
with this, specially living in
a small town. I like to do
figurative paintings (I also
made a couple of
abstractions), inspired in
things I see everyday or in my
hobbies and memories from my
teenage years – newspaper
photos, comics, musicians…
Recently, I created a small
series inspired in guitar
players (my heroes when I was
a kid) and another inspired on
crime scenes. Give me some
time and I intend to put some
of these works here. I also
made some drawings with pencil
and, afterwards, scannned and
blew them up. The bigger
versions show the
irregularities, the imperfect
lines, what particularlly
interests me in the drawing of
figures. There is an
opportunity to change the
person depicted, to emphasize
some aspects of his or her
appearence, or just to suggest
some others. That gives it a
kind of unique personality
that you do not get in
photography, for example.
