Mexico | Sunday, November 23, 2014 | 5 photos

I was born in Santa Monica, California, USA, in 1961. I also have a Mexican nationality, my parents are from there.
Since I was born, art has been for me a way of life, I started by painting and making sculpture, and I discovered the beauty of light thru photography when I studied my career of Communications.
I have been a visual artist for more than 25 years, my tendency has an approach to humans and their effect on society and nature.
I like to take photos of urban life, but mostly the poor, the homeless, the old people.
I also have specialized in nature, especially the relation between man and nature, and their effects.

I deserve to be chosen because I have a big compromise to photography, it is my life, pictures can move the hearts of humanity,
I consider that any expression of artwhen it has a social compromise, it can make a big impact, there is an expression that says that a photo can tell more than a thousand words.
Art, and specially photo can combine with social compromise.
I think that every human has to make our planet a better place to live, and everybody can give the best of them.
