Artist Statement
I have been painting and drawing for as long as I can remember. I am originally from Buenos Aires , Argentina . In the spring of 1999, I arrived to the Bay Area, where I developed a more defined approach and integrated different techniques. Since then I have been showing my art at many different venues.
I paint from memories. My childhood memories bring back vivid colors from Buenos Aires and many other things from those years. These images resurface with energy as I explore with different techniques and media.
Buildings, structures and inner spaces are present in many of my pictures. I often find myself creating large-scale paintings following a simple demonstration sketch during a lesson with kindergarten children.
Children are truly inspirational. One only needs to watch a child approach a blank piece of paper without fears of making "mistakes" to understand that art is truly about the process and the passion of creating. The final product is just secondary.
