Curriculum


Nacido en Carcabuey, Córdoba, Andalucía (España) 


Cursa Bachillerato de Ciencias con Notable en Dibujo Técnico y Artístico en el Instituto "Aguilar y Eslava" de Cabra (Córdoba) becado por la "FUNDACION CAMACHO-LOZANO", Academia "Lope de Vega" e Instituto Averroes de Córdoba, realizando aprendizaje de dibujo lineal y natural y teniendo sus primeros contactos con técnicas del color, acuarela, pastel y témpera.


Continúa su formación como alumno de Delineación y Decoración en la Escuela de Artes y Oficios Mateo Inurria de Córdoba los años 1.981-82 donde aprende Modelado, Talla y Metales, interesandose tambien por la Técnica del Repujado y el Guadamecí Ferreteado.


Acude asiduamente en 1.983 al Curso de Técnicas Pictóricas que se imparte en el taller Arte Club con el maestro Ruíz Luna "Biri". Desde 1985 trabaja asiduamente junto al maestro A. Barbero ; Ambos artistas destacados miembros del Circulo Waldem.


Pintura al Esmalte:


- La Técnica:


Esta técnica de la pintura toma su nombre del tipo de pintura utilizada más que de la antigua técnica de esmaltar objetos cerámicos. En realidad, es un tipo de técnica bastante reciente puesto que la pintura sintética, base de ella, data de unos 100 años aproximadamente.No he sido capaz de averiguar, aunque sigo intentandolo, quien fué el primer pintor que la utilizó, ni porqué, pero adivino que buscaba un tipo de medio asequible y un tipo de técnica único y diferente. Solamente se utilizan dos colores basicamente, solos sin mezclar: el negro o el sepia, tambien , quizá ,buscando una similitud con el realismo de la fotografía de principios del Siglo XX que es a fin de cuentas a lo que se parecen mucho las obras terminadas, tanto por sus efectos de luz, como por su textura.Una vez dominados los dos colores de inicio, se pueden utilizar mezclas e iniciarse en la composición de colores como cualquier otra técnica, admitiendo,incluso, la mezcolanza con materiales de otros tipos de pintura.


- Materiales:


Aparte de cualquier lata o bote de esmalte sintético de cualquier marca conocida del mercado, necesitaremos varias espátulas paleta tipo oleo pequeñas, aguarrás o sucedaneo, mjor aguarras porque tiene menos disolvente un trapo de algodón que no suelte pelusa y papel adhesivo tipo delineante, fácil de arrancar sin que dañe el papel, puede servir la cinta de carrocero, para marcar los filos y guardas y por supuesto un buen papel grueso, con gramaje que disponga de una cara con brillo.Este ultimo es la razón que hará por una parte que podamos impregnar con facilidad y extender la pintura y por otro el que hará que el secado sea lento para obtener tonos y texturas con un tiempo prudencial antes de que se seque definitivamente.


La pintura al esmalte sintético obtiene un realismo digno de cualquier fotografía y es un medio de expresión completo e independiente que puede rivalizar en cualidades espirituales y emotivas con los demás; puede resolverlo todo, pretendiendo incluso,alcanzar el vigor de otras técnicas que se ejecutan con materias más difíciles de control y que tienen infinitos recursos a su alcance y solo está limitada por la imaginación del artista y en ésta primera faceta por los dos colores básicos utilizados.
