Philosophy

His main passion in life is painting, followed by the sport of surfing which unites him with nature venturing only out of his studio to swim in the sea. He has the gift of blending in with his clients to the point of capturing things that others do not perceive with the naked eye touching their soul and heart. Loli has clients on 5 continents and many have been collecting his art for more than 20 years, making him one of Peru’s most prolific and best-selling painters.  His passion for the environment led him to co found a non for profit sustainability company, NGO Tierra you Ser, together with his wife.  They not only promote recycling projects in the community but awaken within their people the need for ecological awareness, love, and care for Mother Earth.
