"Although in previous stages he has devoted more intensely his moments to the landscape, nature and the outdoors, today he dedicates himself, in his Madrid study, to the investigation of forms and content. Thus, as a center of his current work, he shows us the dedication to work on the figure.Figures of all kinds but of a very special nature, the figure of the Woman.He defines himself as a romantic and nostalgic man and painter in love with life and what surrounds us always trying to make the message to be transmitted beautiful even when there are moments when circumstances cloud the beautiful. "What I like is to paint birds, doves, flowers, women ... painting what flies is something that fascinates me".
