I learned to draw before I learned to speak, and I think that is the reason why I express myself better by drawing than in any other way.
Graduated in Fine Arts at the University of Salamanca specializing in Painting. After experimenting with every artistic discipline, I am currently focused on illustration, in which I like to consider myself a kind of interpreter, turning texts into images. I am passionate about cinema and reading, because I just love to be told good stories, so I found in illustration a way to tell my own stories through my drawings.
