I was born in Santiago de Chile, October 29, 1965. From childhood I had a great influence of my family, always close to art, first developed in music, learning it through the guitar and ending upon entry to study Sound Technology career, where I majored in Film Sound by my constant attachment to the Visual Arts, Film and Photography. From his childhood until today, alive impressed with nature, its colors and how light touches every living or inert element with a beauty that always surprises me and re-enchant. So I started trying to translate from a very young my impressions in drawings, comics and some paint, until they were a good number of years and met my friend and painting teacher Gustavo Valenzuela, who I've been fortunate to learn techniques unique painting, finally finding something true in the paint, have access to a painting of the Great Masters of Painting Antigua as Rubens, Titian, Rembrandt, Velazquez, among others ...

So start painting seriously, developing my career as a professional painter, capturing in different fabrics, in an attempt to convey my kind of see life through a different prism, where they spend characters, places, situations, landscapes, etc ... that way I linking these elements to express my feelings and emotions, and thus achieve the viewer to open different windows where you see projected my view of life and the world around us.

With this interest I planned on teaching techniques learned in order that they endure over time, providing the spiritual food to others with the joy that making this beautiful art.
