- I first started like any other child: drawing and painting, but I didn't give up like almost everybody else usually does. I kept performing it as a hobby and now I'm making a proffesional life with it. Honestly, I never thought I had to learn any special technique in order to follow these arts as a real job. I was wrong. Now I thank the knowledge and the expertise I have, provided through a one-year course at the Fine Arts Academy, Artium academy, and the Pe studio. Actually I'm complete my third and last year at the Cinematography and Audiovisual School of the Madrid Community (E.C.A.M.), ending the Animation Speciality and the Storyboard & Visual Development sub-speciality. But now i'm working as freelance illustrator and design, that it's really what i like.

- Comence como todo ni, dibujando, pintando....lo que pasa que a una edad, no lo deje y segui haciendolo como entretenimiento y ahora me gano la vida con ello. La verdad es que no confiaba en que hiciera falta estudiar para esta profesion, pero estaba muy equivocado y agradezco como nunca la formacion que he adquirido en un a en la academia de bellas artes, Academia Artium, estudio Pe y ahora he terminado de cursar el tercer y ultimo a en la escuela de cinematografia y audiovisual de la comunidad de Madrid(ECAM), en la especialidad de cine de animacion y en sub-especialidad de storyboard y desarrollo visual, aunque ahora estoy trabajando como ilustrador y disedor freelance que es realmente lo que me gusta.

Saludos a tod@s.
