Join a unique journey

[ES] Ha dedicado su tiempo a aprender a contar historias imagen por imagen -o en secuencia, que es lo que más le gusta- a través de muchos medios, técnicas y herramientas.

Aunque escribe y dibuja sus propios cómics, también siente pasión por otras formas de arte y por la vida misma.

Tener y disfrutar de una rutina normal e interesarse por cosas diferentes es lo que enriquece el arte.

Experiencias y personas diferentes es lo que nos impulsa como artistas y trabajar solos no debería ser una decisión permanente si queremos lograr más.

De Cuernavaca, este artista comenzó a interesarse por hacer y crear cómics cuando descubrió la revista MAD durante su adolescencia. Expuesto desde entonces también al manga, anime y cómics estilo americano.

Su sueño es que sus cómics se publiquen en diferentes países y diferentes idiomas para que mucha gente los pueda disfrutar.

Que su trabajo sea fuente de inspiración para otros es lo que lo motiva.

 ¿Quieres ayudarlo a lograrlo?

[FR] Il a passé son temps à apprendre à raconter des histoires à l’image – ou par séquence, ce qu’il aime le plus – avec un grand nombre de moyens, de techniques et d’outils.

Il peut écrire et dessiner ses propres comics, mais il est aussi passionnée par les autres formes artistiques et la vie il-même.

Avoir et profiter d’une routine normale et s’intéresser à des choses différentes est ce qui enrichit l’art. 

Des expériences et des personnes différentes sont ce qui nous motive en tant qu’artistes et travailler seuls ne devrait pas être une décision permanente si nous voulons obtenir plus.

De Cuernavaca, cet artiste a commencé à s’intéresser à faire et à créer des bandes dessinées quand il a découvert le magazine MAD pendant son adolescence. Exposé depuis également au manga, à l’anime et à la bande dessinée à l’américaine.

Son rêve est que ses bandes dessinées soient publiées dans différents pays et différentes langues afin que beaucoup de gens puissent les apprécier.

Que son travail soit une source d’inspiration pour les autres est ce qui le rend motivation.

[EN] He dedicated his time in learning how to tell stories one single image at the time -or in sequence, which is what he likes more- through many mediums, techniques and tools.

Although he writes and draws his own comics, he also has a passion for other forms of art and live itself.

Having and enjoying a normal routine and being interested in different things is what enriches art. 

Different experiences and people is what drive us forward as artists, and working alone should not be a permanent decision if we want to achieve more.
From Cuernavaca, this artist began to be interested in making and creating comics when he discovered MAD magazine during his adolescence. He has since also been exposed to American-style comics, anime, and manga.

His dream having his comics published in different countries and different languages so that many people can enjoy them. 

That his work is a source of inspiration for others is what motivates him.

Do you want to help him achieve it?
