Alejandro is a Mexican born national raised overseas in Spain and Germany. He began his journey into art at the age of nine by sketching comic book covers of Spiderman and other favorite super heroes. In his teens his art became more focused on portraits and he mainly worked in graphite and charcoal. After an eight-year tour in the U.S Air Force as a Civil Engineer he came to call San Angelo, TX his home to help raise his daughter and opened the Vino Dipinte Art Gallery in 2011. Coming back to art was a reawakening for him back to a passion that had been set-aside for several years. Invigorated by the mounds of talent around him Alejandro picked up a paintbrush and began his self-taught lessons into painting. Like all artists that set out on a new medium there were mistakes, but from every painting grew a lesson in tone, perspective, light, and contrast. He found inspiration in artists such as Seren Moran, Sarah Stieber, Evelyn Boren, and Leroy Nieman.
