Ricardo is a unique and dedicated artist, known and loved for his passionate, gifted way of communicating with the public. The special talent that he showed early as an artist on stage to the maestro representatives of Llanero music (Joropo), led him to be the youngest dancer and composer poet and performer from his region, to be awarded International first prizes on several occasions. He is a winner of six international competitions in his homeland, three as poetry writer and performer and three as a dancer. As a poet Ricardo is artistically known as El Cóndor.
