About me
I don't remember when the need to paint awakened in me; I just know it was a long time ago. I see painting as a vehicle to channel feelings and emotions. My portraits, my landscapes, my still lifes, are basically excuses to develop my concerns, to extract the essence from the world around me. My world.

I have held numerous solo and group exhibitions during my career, and I am honored to have had my work awarded on several occasions. Plenty of my works are part of private collections in different parts of Spain, as well as in the United States, France, England, Germany, Italy, Holland and Australia.
For 35 years I have been a member of the Colectivo de Pintura de Santa Eulàlia, and for 14 years I have regularly attended the art studio of Neus Ramón, whom, in addition to a teacher and colleague, I am proud to call a friend.
