Juan Antonio Froilan Oviedo was born in Extremadura, Spain, and was introduced to ceramics when his family moved to Talavera, Mexico, when he was just 10. He worked in a local taller alongside his father and took painting classes, before opening his own company the Fábrica Taller Cerámica Artística in 1985 with his wife María. Later they purchased the historic El Carmen ceramics factory, originally established in 1849 but closed for several decades, to revive mayólica production in Talavera. He attended National and International Exhibitions winning several prizes for his work.
