Bio

Eduardo was born in 1964 in Santa Ana, El Salvador, and currently lives in Los Angeles, CA. He was always surrounded by a lot of art in this family because his older brothers liked to paint and draw. He recalls always carrying a sketch pad with him when he was between the ages of 10 and 12. He had to leave the country, like many others his age. He arrived in 1979 and left his sketch pad for rock music, literature, and travel. He went back to school in the 1990s, attending West LA College and Los Angeles Trade Tech, taking art classes while studying architecture and then renewable energy. He is a passionate reader of universal history and has traveled to many countries in Latin America and Europe, which greatly influence his art. Today, he continues drawing and painting, but this time with a critical point of view.
