ART EDUCATION: I am basically self-taught. Currently I paint almost everyday and I have been taking painting lessons in the Sixth Form College in Cambridge, UK. See my Art Curriculum in the CONTACT section.

FLAMENCO AND ART: Flamenco is my main subject. It is part of my Spanish heritage and roots. I am very interested in art in general and in painting in particular. I like doing portraits because I love to capture the spirit of a person with my brushstrokes into paper or canvas. I also like painting nature and scenes of everyday live. I find sketching with colored pencils or watercolors a lot of fun to picture instants of sparkling life. My preferred media are acrylics, pastels and watercolors, although I am developing a great interest in oils. I also print postcards of my paintings, which I aim to sell for charities.

SOLIDARITY: I am interested in raising money for charities involved with aid to children in need worldwide, and cancer research. I believe that if all of us would do just a little bit for the others, the world would be better. You don't need to be a political leader to do that. My ultimate aim is to show people what I do, and maybe inspire others to follow their dreams, and make all together a better world for us all to live in.
