​

Portraiture and Design are my passions. In my vision, they always can complete each other perfectly.  These two amazing universes feed constantly my mind with so tons inspirations and make me feel completely in love and fascinated about my work.

When I am creating and painting portraits my focus is to understand how to translate the personality, history, and energy of my model into my work. Every portrait ( classic or imaginative, in traditional or digital media ) has a great story to tell and this is the most important thing to show in the final result.

When I am creating Designs my mind just dives into the fascinating challenge of collecting a very complex amount of information and translating it into a simple but very powerful image or symbol that has the capacity to connect straight to the audience bringing emotions and new ideas. 

Both worlds play together, connecting and completing each other in an endless process of transformation, which continuously brings me joy and inspiration and is exactly what makes me feel like a very successful artist.
