What is your typical process for working with a new student?
First I want to establish a solid foundation in drawing before starting painting, then I set exercises in grisaille, limited palette before to start with full-color painting.

How did you get started teaching?
When I arrived at the United States I began the pursuit of my goals and like all beginnings for an immigrant painter I began to paint anything that was requested from him like a still life, a landscape or a portrait.
Later in 1999, I devoted Myself to painting murals and decorative effects. Then in 2003, I received American citizenship. And one year later I created my own corporation called Artistic Illusions Painting, Inc. registered in the state of Florida.
Today I paint and teach in Miami for a living "My goal is to build a good foundation in the student, I want them to have a solid foundation in drawing, perspective and composition, tools that they can use later throughout their lives as artists".
