Comes off naturally, I make a dash and arise many geometric shapes in my mind like an endless journey.

When you started effectively to produce or create your works?

Effectively from 12 years old.

Art is an intellectual production exquisite, where emotions are embedded in the context of creation, but in art history, we see that many artists are derived from other, following technical and artistic movements through time, you own any model or influence of any artist? Who would be?

Consciously I have no idea why as I said I admire all the great masters, but actually when I was nine I had no contact with his works, and draw abstract and geometric shapes tirelessly for the simple pleasure of drawing, I do not feel directly influenced by any.
