Drawing is basic in Fine Arts, all the artistic disciplines need drawing at some point and
its principles, such as ilumination and composition apply on all of them; its specially
necessary for painting, etching and design. In order to start our studies we had to pass
an entrance exam consisting of an academic drawing of a clasic sculpture.
During the bachelor degree, Drawing courses are mandatory on the frst three years.
The courses use sculptures and live models as motif with artistical interpretation and
expression as main goals. Be it fast sketches or long time drawings (up to eight hours)
there is a special emphasis on light and the use of different techniques.
On the other hand, anatomic drawing thrieves for the most realistic representation
rather than self expression. To achieve realism, the human body is studied, both bones
and muscles. Using a live model in different poses the human body is studied. Once the
bones and the muscles are studied, the course focuses on accurate illustrations applying
all the previous knowledge.

Etchings

Engraving and stamping is my second Fine Arts speciality, I tried it for the frst time at
school, and years later I took a course on my third year of Fine Arts and kept making
stamps up until now. Engraving is my favorite technique to work on 2D projects without
having a computer involved, as the process has some similarities with sculpting and the
end result has an unique feeling and it is possible to make multiple copies.
There are several engraving techniques, and the one Im most skilled at is wood car-
ving, xylography, as it is similar to wood sculpting; it fts my needs, as the images I
usually produce are highly contrasted and use uniform tones instead of fadings or lines,
working more with contrasts striving for a poster look

Palmera
xylography on elm wood
56 x 38 cm
January 2010
This etching is based on a Mexican palm tree and the sunlight, and the feeling I had
under it. The woodcut is made on an elm trunk section; this technique allows a great
detail but is way harder, it makes the wood rings visible in the stamps, which are hand
made with a spoon.
This engraving was chosen to take part in a collective etching exhibition called La
Primera Oportunidad (The First Chance) which took place in Madrid in the spring of
2010

The waste is an etching project and a book I developed through an entire year. It
deals with the waste of time and life itself. Back then, I was quite concerned about the
importance of life and how its permanently wasted. This project is also guided by di-
fferent Metallica songs because I was really infuenced by them, each etching is in part
inspired by a song.
The project lasted from october 2010 until June 2011. The themes deal respectively
with the excess, the war, the destruction of the enviroment, the hatred and racism, the
fanatism, the manipulation, and the money. They are based on The memory remains,
Disposable Heroes, Blackened, Dont tread on me, The God that failed, Mas-
ter of Puppets and King Nothing. These stamps are from excess, war, destruction,
and hatred.
To fnish the project I made an art book, based on Frantic, I concluded that your time
is not wasted as long as you are the one who decides how to use it enjoying it, giving
value to all the little activities we usually do, and lots of people regard as a waste of
time.

The book refects on how fast life is spent nowadays, always busy, in a hurry, only caring
for how much we produce and earn, and how we disregard the little activities that we
daily do, such as walk, listen to music or meet new people. It emphasizes on how much
time we actually spend doing that, and how we should take our time to enjoy our lifes.
The book was chosen for a collective art exhibition in the Museo da Facultade de Belas
Artes da Universidade do Porto, Portugal, in June of 2012

This is part of a project I developed during the year I stayed in Sweden as an erasmus
and was part of my own art exhibition, Refektion in Norrkping. The project theme
was identity: what makes a person different? what makes each person special? what is
an identity made of? why do we have the need to be so unique, yet so integrated in a
group? what do we use to defne our identity? this are some of the questions that defne
the proyect.
Signatures have a huge importance, they represent ourselves, they are used to make
decisions, to mark, and they last through time, they are used to last. I think this also has
great importance for the art world, as a piece its not only important by itself, but who
made it.
As humans, we have some characteristics that are common to all of us, but at the same
time are unique...One of this characteristics is the fnger print: all of us have one, but
each persons is slightly different from everybody else.
I thought its quite interesting that one of this unique characteristics is in fact a print, we
stamp our fnger to get a fnger print, So I thought about making a woodcut of my own
fnger print, and making a stamp, a piece, which is actually my biological signature.
Making a piece of my signature, is making a piece about myself, about me as an artist,
and the importance that may have that I made a piece like this

After fnishing my degree in Fine Arts, I took a graphic design course to increase my
skills with the Adobe Suite. Graphic Design has always been on of my frst professional
choices, and this course gave me a starting point in this world.
This are some exercises Ive made with different purposes, from class projects to design
contests or personal exercises I did on my own with no specifc purpose. There is also a
branding project for an Ilumination company called Aos Luz

project had to be layed out and printed as a manual

Before I focused on FX, I took some basic knowledge on modeling and texturing cha-
racters in a graphics for videogames course. That course was in 3ds max, in collabora-
tion with a videogame programing master. The course included history of videogames,
character design, low poly modeling, texturing, rigging and basic animation
The fnal part of the course included helping the master students to fnish their project
in their last month: a small videogame. I worked in Fruitopia, a game based on fghting
fruits with a very innocent looking graphic style. I was in charge of creating the fnal
boss for the game, an armored pineapple. I modeled, textured, rigged and animated
all the movements.

After my erasmus in Sweden, i got together with some friends and formed Yuhu! Studio,
a work group to develop small animation projects to practice and develope our skills.
We started working on a small animation called Driven, a cartoon creature who swings
moods and colours with music. I was in charge of the colorscript, texturing, lighting and
rendering. The project is still in production as the animation is still not fnished. I learned
a lot about texture layers during this project. The character design, modeling, and ani-
mation belongs to Alejandro Olmos and Carlos Salmern.
