His work deals with color and how it behaves on the surface. He is interested in thought and everything that happens to the human being internally. Where do all those experiences that happen to us go? How do human beings create layers in order to survive the world around them? He works with layers of color, which he stops applying when he has managed to connect with the canvas, and finds inspiration in the colors of nature and the different cities of the world that he travels. He only works with the primary colors, together with black and white , from which he has created his own formula and palette. He likes to work with his own photographs to extract the colors that most attract his attention. He paints because words are not enough to express himself, and it is his way of connecting with the outside world.
