His artistic training was mainly self-taught, although he received drawing lessons for two years from professor Gertrudis Romaguera i Valls. He initially combined his artistic activity with his job as a plumber until 1976, when he decided to devote himself fully to painting.

His work, inspired by impressionism, is characterized by the depiction of Mediterranean landscapes, seascapes, streets, and urban scenes, with special attention to light, color, and atmosphere. In 1966 he held his first solo exhibition in Platja d'Aro.
