Bio

Having a degree in Biology allows me to appreciate the colors and shapes of Nature, life in general and since 2004 I am an apprentice of kabbalah that I transmit in my artwork as well.
I want to share the Light and the artwork of living the strength when you know the meaning of life.
I paint since 1992.
The first phase of my artistic career is influenced by Impressionism, as a representation, there are many landscapes painted from nature, where Light and color prevail.
Although there are also abstract and figurative paintings; but the hallmark in all of them is the vividness of color and clarity.
They are paintings without sorrow, full of joy and vitality where the love of life and nature is reflected: another of my careers: Biological Sciences.
In recent times the orientation that my work is taking is parallel to the study of kabbalah.
In it I capture names of God in Hebrew that give meaning to the subject: Prosperity, loving attraction, unconditional love, the soul mate, overcoming fear, health...
Thus up to 72 sacred names can make it up. The path is open. I meditate and then I paint, like a channel of Light. I want my work to move, calm, guide, transform. I ask that my hands be the tool to capture the best ideas and make known the ancient knowledge of Kabbalah.
My work is not purely aesthetic. Its purpose is to elevate the spirit, so that you can meditate with it and thus change the life of those who look at it.
