I been born and bred in Durango,this state its located to north of México.
In my cradle, " I found the trip ticket foe all my life" like Goya said,and today come to my mind his words,loaded (obvious ) of a deep meaning.
I have been belonging to a family of landowners,owners of forests for many years,therefore of the nature I nourished myself, I take to the mother nature as my teacher,definitively.
The gif of the drawing in my is born,by this always it respect,for being in my natural one ( to the art academies never I went to take class but to talk with the classmates ) thus it is that I did of this virtue,for my great virtue ( for others surely will be small) my intimate profession but and but beloved,because Imust say that I also dedicate myself to the soil explote of precious stones walking by mountains I found,and liked this: the work of minerals.
But returning to the art and my vocation, the drawing for my it is very important, the art is the spirit of itself and the spirit or the essence of the things, therefore the drawing is a form of knowledge of itself and our surroundings being therefore the deep and intimate confession but and means of comunión with all the men and all the women...by the drawing I knew myself my same one,and this is not too much, by the drawing confronts to as it were my painting from 1974 is sold well,that year I was for the first time in a gallery of certain prestige ( in the world of the Mexican art ) there I was like exclusive artist until it disappeared, was property of a family of journalists very important of the CD.of México,the gallery was called " LAI".Then I was in others,now I am in ; " LA MAREN " y GALLERY in " LA CORDOURIER" que GALLERY also is important in the Cd. of México.
