Jhonatan was born on January 9, 1994 in Puerto Leguizamo, Putumayo. He is the second of three brothers and since he was a child he showed his artistic talent. After finishing high school, he entered the military academy as a volunteer, with the dream of being a non-commissioned officer. However, fate had another mission in store for him: art. At the Marco Fidel Suárez headquarters in Cali, where he was serving, he won a competition to design the area's renovation shield. That was the impulse that led him to abandon his military career and return to his hometown. There, together with his family, he set up an advertising business, which allowed him to develop his creativity. For four years he dedicated himself to this activity, until one day he decided to face the blank canvas. With paints and acrylics, he began to capture his vision of a magical and colorful world, inspired by ancient cultures, the Amazon jungle and the animals that inhabit it, such as the jaguar. Jhonatan expresses his life and his passion through the brush.
