Artist Statement
I grew up near the mountains of Cordoba, Argentina where I developed a great love for the outdoors. You can see this reflected in my artwork. Making art, traveling, cooking, swimming and biking are just some of the things I enjoy doing. I lived in New York for a while and later moved to Austin where I decided to get back to drawing while teaching myself to paint. Since moving to Austin, I have learned a lot about myself and the magical world of art. I have found that the experience of painting murals and collaborating with other artists have added new elements to my life. There are always new challenges and things to learn. Making art can be intimidating at times, but so fun and rewarding.
