Antonio Donaire
Artist & Director
I have studied Law. I was working as legal adviser and also at Bbva&Caixa banks until I discover ART and opened me a new world. A world where I can draw illusions and fantasy, to create freedom and magic. Photography and painture approach us to our essence. Perhaps a new world is possible. We are all unstoppables.
Now I work painting using graffiti, acrylics, oil,…mixing with my photography. I’m film director too . My first feature “El Secadero de Iguanas” is available in Amazon Prime, Movistar ,etc .
