because art is free'. An
artist of dynamic contrasts

| Why Did You Become An Artist |
“I am an artist because I was born to be one. I couldn’t live if I wasn’t one. I am alive because I paint. It feeds my soul. My motive to paint is to live and to express every moment of my life and the simple fact of being alive”. |

| Your Personal Biography |
Jorge intruded in the art in a lyrical and incidental way
when he was a little boy, in the year of 1974, working with
drawings. As a young boy he received direct artistic
influence from his father who was a Landscaping painter at
that time. Jorge regarded art as a part of himself during
his childhood and adolescence. Later on he perfected his
technique by taking drawing classes, painting, history of
the art, human body drawing, art object, engraving, mixed
media and abstraction. He decides to pursue a career in
“Drawing and Illustration” in Mexico City and later on he
move to Atlanta, Georgia where he focuses on Abstract Art.
In each new work, Jorge looks out from within as he explores
issues of outer and inner development. Currently his work is
focused on his never-ending obsession with abstract
painting. |
