Hello! My name is Joan Miró. I was drawn to the arts community in Spain at a very young age, and when I grew older I became a very famous artist. I work in many genres including ceramics, sculpture, and murals. I also like to experiment with new and unusual styles and media. But I am best known for my colourful and bold Surrealist paintings. In 1980 I was awarded the Gold Medal of Fine Arts from the king of Spain for my work. I am looking forward to meeting all of you! ¡Adiós!
