The primary medium for my books are: etching, photo-etching, silkscreen, linocut, mono-print, chine colle in which I incorporate drawing and painting as a mix medium or support for the images; also I work with new technologies such as Photoshop, Quark X press and In-design. My art work: prints, paintings, drawings and artists’ books represents images drawn from what is happening in Colombia, its political situation, personal feelings and thoughts, words, notes, and quotations from reading writers or poets, impressions of my surroundings, reflections of my sense of freedom and emotional spontaneity.
