His paintings have appeared on five covers of International Literature Collection The Conjurados and illustrated six reprints of the journal Common Presence. His work has received comments from Gonzalo Márquez Cristo, Jotamario Arbelaez, Mauricio Contreras, Amparo Osorio, José Chalarca, Alonso Restrepo and Maria Soledad Garcia.

The orientation of his work from the beginning was marked by the dreamlike and surreal with a stage close to fantastic art. Scepticism about the latest manifestations of modern art has been a constant in his work, derived from existentialism of his thinking and his interest in authors like Camus, Borges, Cioran, and shamanism of Carlos Castaneda and of course the magical realism of Gabriel García Márquez.
