Jose Antonio Pineda was born in
Granada on August 5, 1950. At the age of six his family enrolled him in the
nearby Escuela de Artes y Oficios of Motril. When he was eight his family moved
to Barcelona where he studied at the Instituto Ribas a teaching center situated
in the Paseo Vall d’Hebron.
During his early years Pineda worked
in an advertising studio in Barcelona where he learned composition, framing and
perspective. His desire to paint led him to leave Barcelona in search of
landscapes. He settled in Ametilla de Mar, located along the Mediterranean - -
a place of dancing rocks, rough cliffs and warm golden beaches. Pineda found
inspiration in this setting. After his first local solo exhibition he traveled
to Paris to continue to show his work.
