My interest in art
was born from my
childhood.
My parents bought us books and encyclopedias.
I paged through them with great attention
and enjoyed the illustrations. They called my
attention especially, those that showed art in any
of its forms.
My work is realistic and surreal at the same time,
and I am referring to Mexican realism.
Realism interests me because of the projection
of its content, I do not like the technical and
effectist.
I can definitely say that I have different styles or
the combination of them, because someti mes
my works have an ironic temperament, or they
can be shaped by a black humor that I am enjoy
very much to achieve. Sometimes, impacted by
social or political events I decide to release my
opinion and then I become critical and darkish.
I have met with spectators of some of those
paintings, who may be of their narrow mind, they
say looking at some of my work, they produce
«fear» they say, but that for me is a satisfaction,
when I realize That I have managed to express
a message so Intense that forces the viewer into
reflections.

I work mainly oil, but I have worked with
experimenting with other materials and different
techniques. In the end the oil is what allows me
to shape my technique.
In my works are seen political messages ...
humanistic ... environmental
Yes, I like those three themes, but also, in my
painting you will find something philosophical.
Sometimes I go with some metaphor. What
you will never find are little “artworks” to
decorate your dining room or your living room
or a repetitive Frida Kalho, and no strident and
commercial colors. That to me is not art, it›s just
crap. If Frida was alive, she would be laughing
loud at the shame of seeing her image fumbling
everywhere, even in the shopping bags.
What if inspiration or where does a theme come
from for my next job?
