All my work is done using the technique called collage (from the French coller), which translates “to paste,” which is an artistic technique that consists of the construction of plastic works through the agglomeration or conjunction of pieces or cutouts from different origins, “trying” to give a unified tone format. In other words, it is about assembling work with bits obtained from other sources such as photographs, illustrations, Artcraft, images in magazines, and everyday objects.
On a personal level, my artistic style is deeply rooted in Kitsch, a style known for its vibrant colors, bold shapes, and striking elements. I often incorporate illustrations from the public domain into my work. My fascination with antiquities and furniture is a recurring theme, evident in the costumes of my characters and the environments where my works’ narratives unfold.
My image sources can include images and cuttings from very old magazines that are passed through a scanner to be processed into digital format. Therefore, it is very possible that the final prints do not have uniform images and can have different textures.

The definition of a giclee is a beautiful, long-lasting technology for fine art or photograph reproduction. It uses a high-quality inkjet printer to make individual copies of different sizes and materials.

In this captivating and surreal image, a regal lion-headed figure stands tall and proud against an intricately patterned background. The figure exudes an air of nobility and authority, combining the elements of fantasy and reality in a seamless blend. The backdrop is a richly detailed tapestry of blue and gold, featuring elaborate geometric and floral designs that evoke a sense of grandeur and historical significance. This background sets the stage for the central figure, enhancing the overall sense of opulence and sophistication.
The main character in the image is a humanoid figure with the head of a lion, adorned with a majestic golden crown that signifies royalty and power. The lion’s face is rendered with meticulous detail, showcasing a calm yet commanding expression. Its mane is luxurious and full, adding to the regal appearance of the figure. The combination of the lion’s head with the human body creates a striking contrast, blending the strength and nobility of the lion with the elegance and poise of a human.
The figure is dressed in a red military-style uniform, complete with golden epaulettes on the shoulders that add a touch of formality and distinction. The uniform is finely tailored, fitting the figure perfectly and accentuating its upright and dignified posture. The red jacket is adorned with a gold sash that crosses the chest, adding a diagonal element that draws the viewer’s eye across the figure. A star-shaped medal is pinned to the jacket, symbolizing honor and achievement.
The lower half of the figure is clad in white trousers, tucked into tall black boots that reach up to the knees. The contrast between the white trousers and the black boots adds a visual balance to the figure, grounding its appearance. The boots are polished and immaculate, reflecting the figure’s attention to detail and discipline.
In one hand, the figure holds a hat, a gesture that suggests readiness and formality. The hat is simple yet elegant, complementing the overall attire without drawing attention away from the main features of the figure. The other hand rests on a sword, which is sheathed and hanging at the figure’s side. The sword is a symbol of authority and protection, reinforcing the figure’s role as a leader or guardian.
The floor on which the figure stands is a classic checkerboard pattern of blue and white tiles. This pattern adds depth and perspective to the image, guiding the viewer’s gaze towards the central figure. The checkerboard design also enhances the sense of formality and tradition, aligning with the regal theme of the image.
The overall composition of the image is carefully balanced, with each element contributing to the cohesive narrative of nobility and fantasy. The interplay between the detailed background, the regal attire, and the anthropomorphic figure creates a rich tapestry of visual and symbolic elements. The use of colors, particularly the blue and gold of the background, the red and gold of the uniform, and the black and white of the floor, creates a harmonious and visually engaging palette.
