About the Artist

My artistic side came since childhood especially on the part Paterna. My father was a great artist. He painted using all sorts of techniques such as oil, charcoal, pencil, watercolor. My mother also paints very well and loves the arts. But my interest in digital art arises when I start my studies as a computer programmer and start to discover a world of new possibilities and tools to express my art.

Discovering a Talent

I’ve always liked the design and illustration. Every day, I try to push it a bit more to learn and put more dedication to the job. I really think you have to do what one likes, but it is sometimes difficult, most important is to believe in yourself and work hard. With effort and dedication, everything comes.

I try to combine my work as a computer programmer in engineering with my passion, by the design and illustration.
