Sculptor Frutos María
Frutos María
Burgos, España,My work is sensitive to creation; it is a constant process of análisis and research so that the result is quality in the design of the sculptures. I also believe in my work, in my ability to do what I like. It is an internal nödvändighet that has driven me to create. I don’t look for success, I am more interested in well-done work, with courage and feeling.
