DESCRIPTION

I am a graduate on photography and visual arts from Elche University (Alicante, Spain). Since I was very young I was attracted by the world of image, and in 1982 I signed in my town photographic association. I have taken part in some national and international contests having been awarded with several prizes and mentions. In 1991 due to personal reasons, I left photography for 12 years. I came back timidly in 2004 with the opening of an individual exhibition of my recent work under the title"In the front row". Since then, I have been taking part in contests and collective exhibitions, and some of my pictures have been published in books and catalogues. Nowadays, I have more time to dedicate to my great passion.
