Serie 2023-2024
This year's work has a very different focus than my previous artistic series, and the process is very different. Having seen myself become much more involved in blockchain technology, my artistic approach changed completely; new facets have slowly been incorporated that I am still discovering and that completely revolutionize my way of understanding art.
This is also accompanied by a change in my personality, in my connection with the people around me, and in the society in which I live. It has been a year of many ups and downs and an intense emotional charge.
An artist's evolution is usually unique, influenced by context but also partially their own. In the world of technology and finance, one sees everything intertwined almost without realizing it.
When an artist is devoted to innovation and creativity, he connects with massive emotions, and that begins to somewhat delimit his behavior when creating his works.
With the incorporation of NFTs into my life in the first place, I have had to change my conception of things completely. from how one interacts with a possible collaboration between artists or with the functioning of the traditional art market. One begins to make other decisions; one sees oneself as much closer to the collectors, and that generates a beautiful reciprocity that has seldom been experienced with traditional art when it targets a decent level of trade.
Secondly, the incorporation of artificial intelligence as a tool, I believe that the possibilities are unlimited, even at times I feel overwhelmed by the number of things that I could do at the same time and my brain cannot cover them all, now a single person can do the work of a complete team, only with an artificial assistant.
I think this gives way to Mythos std. Company that creates stories and art, with the help of a team of creatives, editors and designers who, with the help of AI, will create new worlds for the future of gaming.
Depending on the series I have used different theories, generally I take as main reference the actions of nature and the will that the work itself has, the flow of our actions trying to sporadically reproduce the randomness with which the force of nature acts.
I try to turn off my ego a little and let the message be born by itself, as soon as I get too involved in thoughts and I get involved with my attitude within the flow, everything begins to lose naturalness and is forced, we are a channel that unites our universe intern with art and created us one more tool of the creation process.
My style is mixed and changes over time, I started as a realistic artist in pencil and an abstract artist in ink, then I mutated trying to take better advantage of the use of color and I began to mix drawing with abstract painting, always with the intention of at some point be able to unite these 2 worlds.
Also, the next collections that I will upload will be strongly influenced by artificial intelligence, seeking to make the most of its practically instantaneous reproduction capabilities and thus be able to create a large volume of work, supporting the work more from the conceptual side and not so much from the very creation of the product.
Trying to compete with the 60 seconds it takes an AI to complete a dignified task in jobs that would be difficult for a professional with 10 or 15 years of education, I believe it marks a clear path that one must know how to develop with dignity so that production is even better with the use of these new tools.
Art, like the world, is transforming. I always believe that being part of the change is more difficult but pleasant in the long term, and luckily I am a long-term person.
I am currently going through my third year in this world, and the minimum that I set for myself is ten in order to reach a verdict. What will my collections be like in eight more years?

Serie 2021/2022
Since I can remember, I have had a passion for drawing that is different from that of the rest of my colleagues or relatives. I always drew, and it was the most natural thing that ever happened to me.
I always felt my path was related to lines and not to letters or numbers; my first experience with art was to feel what I could produce by creating something.
Nothing made me be an artist; it's something that happened at the beginning of my life, a need that continues to this day and that I don't think can ever be extinguished.
There are always themes that one tries to cover and those that are born within the creative period, many times one goes with a preconceived idea but ends up letting the message that the canvas wants to give us flow, it is a work of exchange between what one wants to say by itself itself and what art means from within us.
Depending on the series, I've used various theories, but in general, I take nature's actions and the will that the work itself has as my main references, the flow of our actions attempting to sporadically reproduce the randomness with which nature's force acts.
I try to turn off my ego a little and let the message be born by itself. As soon as I get too involved in my thoughts and my attitude within the flow, everything begins to lose its naturalness and become forced. We are a channel that unites our universe with art, which makes us one more tool in the creation process.

These two realms.

After studying academic drawing to an acceptable level, I began my personal search for materials and expressiveness, and by chance, while making some sculptures, I discovered epoxy resin, which became the main axis of all my artistic creation, along with liquid acrylic inks.
With this technique (which consists of many steps and variations), I developed 3 art series, "Nature" and "Universe" and "Soul" and it is today that I continue experimenting with it looking for more innovative and aesthetic results.
I have also been working on the development of NFT's for more than two years. I have already made more than 235 NFTs and more than 190 of them have been sold, I was lucky enough to be able to meet a large number of collectors through the marketplace.
