Biography

 
After finishing a landscape while taking an art class years back, I asked my teacher, \"What do you think I should paint next?\" He reflected for a while and said: ?The important question is not ?what to paint?, but ?why to paint?. If you have a good answer to the second question, you will have no problem in answering the first: It won?t matter?. That left me thinking? ever since.

After finishing a landscape while taking an art class years back, I asked my teacher, \"What do you think I should paint next?\" He reflected for a while and said: ?The important question is not ?what to paint?, but ?why to paint?. If you have a good answer to the second question, you will have no problem in answering the first: It won?t matter?. That left me thinking? ever since.

My current, simple answer to the ?why? question is: Because I enjoy it. And, yes, I find subjects to paint without dificulty.

I love landscape, understood in a broad sense: I paint rural scenes of Castilla, my homeland; but also urban views of these and other latitudes, seascapes, and sometimes people integrated in the above or by themselves .

I feel great respect for reality and, against common advice, I rarely choose to straighten up a crooked telephone pole, or to suppress cables running across a façade, or other seemingly superfluous details. I tend to think that if they are there, it is for a reason, and I have found that, more often than not, they help, rather than spoil, the composition. In this sense my work can perhaps be called ?realistic?. My technique, at present, is oil.
