About the artist:

Juan Carrillo was in the Saint Fernando Academy, but the academy's spirit wasn't in him. When he was young, he learnt craftsmanship and other techniques which restrict the inspiration and the freedom to paint in canvas. Nobody can show the colours of you personality, the chromatic emotion or the character. Nobody can show the obsession which the artist needs and he pursues the beauty opposite to mediocrity.
