WHO AM I?

Drawing has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have this memory of entering a kids‘ drawing contest when I was little. Between the ages of 15 and 18, I left my mark on the folders of many classmates and friends. And just when it seemed like my career path was leading straight to Architecture, the wind shifted in the right direction, and I ended up studying Fine Arts at the University of the Basque Country.

I won’t pretend I had a brilliant academic career—because I didn’t. But I can say that I absolutely loved every single art history class and every subject that involved drawing and painting, whether it was technical drawing, freehand sketching, set design, realistic or abstract painting, or just pure experimentation.

Even back then, portrait drawing and realism were my main focus. For a few years, they were part of my daily life. And then, well… life happened. My focus shifted toward web design, and responsibilities slowly led me to put my pencils and brushes aside.

After almost twelve years, I unexpectedly picked up paper and pencil again. And I fell in love all over again. That was over two years ago, and not a single day goes by without feeling the urge to grab a pencil.
