I was born in León, a beatuful town in Spain.
I graduated like an architect from the Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura in Madrid, but drawing had been my passion since I can remember.
My illustrations, caricatures and cartoons have appeared in the Spanish press such as the ABC journal or the Magazine Blanco y Negro. I am currently drawing political cartoons and illustrations in El Español (www.elespanol.com), the top one of the Spain´s online newspapers. I also have collaborated in the prestigious Magazine of the University of Chicago and El Cultural. The Washington Post selected one of my illustrations as one of the best art created by the readers during the pandemic.
In 2013 I made my first animated music video for the american singer Sarabeth Tucek. You can watch it here
I have always enjoyed the children´s Literature and I have writen and illustrated some picture books.
At this moment I´m living in Salamanca.
