Marta de La Fuente was born in Mojados, a Castilian village that few people know. She spent her childhood among bulls, impressionist paintings, and endless games of chinchón, sitting at her grandmother's skirts. It sounds like a cliché, but her mother confirms that she was drawing before she could walk. She introduced her to painting through her recreations of Sorolla and Egon Schiele. Her father, a former fine arts student and architect, passed on basic concepts of anatomy and, above all, the self-taught and nonconformist character that has now led Marta to pause her comfortable and successful career as a designer to focus all her energies and aspirations on painting.
