I was commissioned by Plácida to create this vibrant botanical pattern with colourful flowers for Derprosa identity .

The botanical pattern accompanies its new range of products in all its graphic applications, whether digital or printed. This selection of plants ( Cornflower blue, poppy, hyacinth, broom, jazmín….) shares peculiarities, qualities or characteristics of these new products. Its central piece consists of a box containing the four new products, represented in four small boxes that function as a showcase of the benefits of each film.

Con motivo de la COP 25 celebrada en Madrid en Diciembre del 2019, el Museo del Prado y WWF España unieron sus fuerzas para denunciar los graves riesgos de una subida de la temperatura global media por encima de 1,5º grados.

Bajo el nombre “+1,5º C lo cambia todo”, ambas fundaciones han involucrado al arte clásico de forma directa con una de las mayores preocupaciones del presente mediante la intervención con ilustración digital sobre 4 de las más famosas obras de la pinacoteca.

Esta obra de Velazquez que representa a Felipe IV a caballo, es uno de sus retratos ecuestres más famosos.

Mi intervención “inundando” esta obra, ilustra lo que ocurriría en caso de que el nivel del mar aumentase hasta 1m de altura, lo que haría desaparecer estados enteros obligando a millones de personas a desplazarse.

On the occasion of the COP 25 celebrated in Madrid in December 2019, the Prado Museum and WWF Spain have united forces to draw attention to the dire risks inherent in a temperature rise of more than 1,5º degrees.

Under the title “+ 1.5º C changes everything” , both foundations have implicated classical art with the current most pressing issues through the intervention of digital illustration superimposed on 4 of the most famous paintings of the Museum.

This Velazquez painting of King Felipe IV on horseback is one of the painter’s most famous equestrian portraits.

My intervention "flooding" illustrates what would happen if the sea level increased to 1m high, which would create the disappearance of entire territories, forcing millions of people to migrate.

Cosmic Flora is an illustration for the collaborative illustration exhibition “Plants with Bite” at the Royal Botanical Garden Sydney about  the behavior of carnivorous plants.

Byblis liniflora, also known as the Rainbow Plant, is native to northern Australia. It is a very delicate annual carnivorous plant that produces sticky droplets to catch prey and flowers producing a pretty purple flower. With this plant as an starting point and adding the Yellow Utricularia Vulgaris flowers and the red Darlingtonia flowers, I have imagined a scene of a biologist exploring a new planet, collecting samples of life and new plants to study. She is about to cut a flower from the Rainbow Plant, but it is sensitive to the movement and in defence is already wrapping itself around her while she’s hypnotised by the beauty of the colours and movement.

(If you live in Australia, you can purchase a beautiful print here)

Esta Planta inspira esta ilustración, en ella se ve a una astronauta recolectando muestras, la chica está apunto de cortar una flor de la planta Arcoiris, pero como la planta es sensible al movimiento, ya ha empezado a envolver a la astronauta que ha quedado hipnotizada por la belleza de los colores del jardín que ha descubierto.

In 2017, my entire interest was focused on works considering the harmonic combination of the 3 basic natural elements, animal, vegetal & mineral. The resulting series presents some of the ideas realized.
One of these illustrations was modified into a new work - As part of the collaborative project #pimpmyfactura, which aimed, through the sale of art, to pay off the debts of a  Argentinian, public nursery ("José L. Suárez”). The value of the illustration is the same as the invoice of one of the debts to be paid. This great initiative was organized by TBWA/Buenos Aires with Publicidar Foundation.

I was commissioned to illustrate this beautiful label for the Tasmanian vinery Shy Susan Wines.
The illustration is inspired by the rare and unique simbiosis between a little native Tasmanian Bee and the critically endangered wildflower Shy Susan (Tetratheca Gunnii ). The tiny pink blossoms of the Shy Susan only realize pollen when vibrated at the resonant frequency of the bees, her survival depends completely on them; their fate is forever entwined.

Esta detallada y delicada ilustración es la etiqueta de los vinos producidos por la bodega Shy Susan wines (Tasmania). La idea está inspirada en la rara y simbiotica relación entre una pequeña abeja nativa de Tasmania y la flor silvestre en peligro de extinción Shy Susan (Tetratheca Gunnii). Sus diminutas flores rosadas solo generan polen con la vibración de las alas de las abejas, por lo que  su supervivencia depende completamente de ellas.

I was commissioned to make this digital oil-painted portraits of  3 Australian winemakers sisters for the labels of their MO Sisters wines. The client wanted to preserve the anonymity of the sisters so paint strokes were added to hide eyes and noses and also to contrast with the beautiful bronze metallic printing.

Desde Australia recibí el encargo de retratar a estas 3 hermanas propietarias de La bodega australiana “Mo Sisters” para las etiquetas de sus vinos Chardonnay,  Cabernet Sauvignon y vino tinto mezcla.

This personal project explores the concept of "energetic" portraiture by depicting notable figures from music, painting, and literature. I selected a range of personalities that have inspired me and created portraits using a dual-layer technique on vegetable paper—one layer in pencil and charcoal, and another with color. One portrait, that of Georgia O’Keeffe, was later chosen for a group exhibition.

*[Every year is the year of the monkey ]

I really love monkeys, and I really like to celebrate Chinese New Year, so I started 2016 with these acrylic paintings to celebrate and congratulate for the new year of the fire monkey, 2016.
I also wanted to emphasize that a lot of these animals are seriously in danger so my position was and is to be against everything that causes them pain, such is the palm tree oil industry, deforestation, poaching, illegal animal trade, lab testing, zoos, circuses, shows etc.

My continual concern with animals in danger and in this case,  The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species

led me to illustrate some of them in order to visually underline and emphasize the problem.
This one is an acrylic painting of the beautiful Andean bear, endemic to the Tropical Andes, and the only extant species of bear in South America. They occupy a great variety of habitats, from desert-scrub to forests to high altitude grasslands, ranging in elevation from 250 to 4,750 m

In the beginning of 2016, after moving to the beautiful city of Granada, my interest was focused on nature, so I began to explore the nature around me collecting stones and plants from my walks with my two dogs; I wanted to combine the 3 basic elements together, as in life itself, in beautiful amalgamations, hence the name of the series, "animal.vegetal.mineral". My attention was to slow drawing, with pencil, on the splendor of "archer paper", as if the process itself became a meditative walk.

personal work-in-progress project about my family and my childhood

At the end of 2016, I decided to try something new in a totally different style. Without a clear objective, the process lent itself to play and improvisation and experimentation.  Influenced by the illustrations I was following and the books I was reading, this enigmatic illustration was the result of the moment and a new approach to my visual world.
A few months later it was chosen as part of the project "dibujos por sonrisas", an initiative of the association creativos en acción, to raise funds for basic needs in European refugee camps.
