Is there inspiration or is driven by the habit of work?
Of course there is inspiration. It is the creativity in the artist, it is sometimes to be
carried away by the madness, by the ideas, to be able to arrive at the creation. The
habit is "work"
no one who does not
work can achieve ins-
piration, you can lie in
bed all day without
getting a cent of inspi-
ration, but if you take
the brush or clay and
start working, then
inspiration comes
alone without needing
to call it.

What defines you as a painter or sculptor?
What I do, is the product of my hands, but they must be united in working, with the eyes,
the mind and the heart, and thus, I can define what I am, and be sure that I am on the
right path.
Is there a "Terrés style"? And what is that style or styles?
The Terrés style can be said that it is the constant search, the dissatisfaction, to correct
the mistakes daily, to learn daily, to study, to initiate, to start every day and to try to do
better work than the one that achieved yesterday.
Who were the artists that influenced your career?
Starting from my Mother, all the Masters I have had, in the School of Arts and in the Uni-
versity. With which I have found in the books, with those that I have lived in the trips and
of what I learn in the museums to be face to face with the works that interest to me. Until
today, I have not stopped learning something, every day, from all of them.
