I made these drawings and inks from a living model. My style has been forged over the years. My artistic training is the result of meetings in different workshops, and an assiduous practice of drawing. I used multiple techniques. My preference is for charcoal, which leaves little room for repentance. The living model and portrait are universal and inexhaustible themes.

Drawing is a universal and synthetic language that I never tire of. I like to read the autobiographies and reflections of artists from all eras. I am curious to understand their motivation, their universe, their technique and their approach. All of them develop different visions, united by this endless search, which I have come to understand is the essence of the artistic experience.
