Between 1962 and 1968 performed works in Indian ink, pastel, acrylic and modeling paste to represent future cities. In 1969 produces two-dimensional assemblies for which uses plastic toys, models to assemble cars, boats and motorcycles. That year a scholarship by the INCIBA and travels to Paris, where he worked in the studio of Jesus Soto and studied engraving at the School of Decorative Arts with Yves Heude (1969-1970).

By 1970 applies to their assemblies spray paint, creating mechanical seals expressing hazy figures on paper, cloth and wood.

When more effort is logged because the modules are integrated with painting and assembly prove one consistent "effect (Guevara, 1975). From 1971 works with reliefs, made with toys attached to the timber immersed in a simulated white body fossils.

The artist used 25,000 tiny objects to perform 113 different compositions. When the cloth was sprayed with paint, objects left their footprints: at each point a drop of color is formed; it is estimated that the work is about two million points that make up clusters of stars floating in a universe of hues. Later this year he traveled to the United States where he studied communication, linguistic and synergy; at this stage applies a new technique to his work, intervening spaces blurred bold brushwork and color drops.
