Born in Ciudad Bolívar, Venezuela, Sanchez studied drawing, painting and sculpture in Caracas, including at the Instituto de Arte Federico Brandt. In the late 1990s, he held solo exhibitions at Galería Freites in Caracas and at galleries in South Florida, Chicago, Panama City and San Salvador. In 1999, his work was included in the Salón Pirelli for young artists at the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Caracas Sofía Imber.

Another work from his repertoire of circus subjects, Circo rojo (1997), is an oil on canvas of the same dimensions with Galería Freites provenance. It sold for US$23,500 at Christie’s New York in June 2000.
