"Fine-Arts" prints on paper
It is a process of printing on art paper using very high-quality pigment inks and printed in very high definition. Its level of conservation is exceptional (more than 100 years), its quality, depth, and richness of nuances exceeds the classic photo print on Argentic paper.
Glossy finish
Apart from its exceptional thickness, the fiber paper is composed of an alpha-cellulose base without acid and it is covered with barium sulphate, and a microporous layer absorption enhancing pigments during printing. A pure white color, non-yellowing to light, this paper is especially designed for resistance and aging. It is used by major museums worldwide as it offers excellent resolution, rendering deep and dense colors.

In the Pla de Petracos Sanctuary, there is an extraordinary set of paintings spread over six shelters as a natural "altarpiece" on the spectacular rocky wall.
The central position of the set is occupied by the "Coat V" with two human representations. The main figure is a "prayer" (represented in the work Orante prays to the Gods of Nature). Above it, another smaller human figure was painted with a kind of bag or hanging object and in an attitude of movement. This figure is the protagonist of 6k BC (the title refers to its antiquity, 6th millennium BC)
The expressive movement and silhouette of this image of Petracos suggest to the author the figure of a shaman dancing in some kind of celebration.
The fact that these peoples were the first farmers in the area is interpreted as the victory (the word victory appears in the work) of technology, which allows them to evolve and develop social relations and spirituality to a greater extent.
This evolution of the human being through technology is represented with a binary code as the final layer in the work that covers the entire painting (the code includes, in addition to 0 and 1, some V for victory).
Macro-schematic art is only found in the northern area of the province of Alicante, it was created by the first Neolithic groups that arrived in these lands in the middle of the 6th millennium BC, coming from the Near East. Through the Mediterranean, these groups sailed in canoes, always close to the coast, carrying with them wheat and barley seeds, sheep and goats.
These macro-schematic paintings stand out for their large size and the main images are human figures called "orantes", people with their arms raised as if they were praying. They were painted to achieve the fertility of the fields, animals and women.
The chosen places are rocky shelters, well visible and illuminated by the sun. These areas were not habitat but "sanctuaries" to which the surrounding populations went for religious celebrations, rites of age, alliances...

I'm an expressionist abstract painter. I make lyrical paintings, based on color, texture and energy. I try to connect with the most ancient part of my brain, the least educated area.
I develop my work in 2 phases, the first one is the most intuitive part of the work, I create interest without thinking a lot, without judge anything and giving to myself opportunities to create interest. In the second phase, I work in a more logical way, working the composition, values and details.I work with acrylics, alcohol inks and spray painting mainly.
