The son of the writer and poet Julio Pellicer and the pianist Concha Galeote, his upbringing was deeply rooted in both classical and modern sensibilities. He received his artistic training under the guidance of Julio Romero de Torres and the painter Daniel Vázquez Díaz. His work is characterized by a combination of the light and color of the southern Mediterranean with a modern aesthetic that remains figurative, as seen in his canvas La chica del pericón.

Throughout his career, Pellicer established himself as an accomplished painter, engraver, and portraitist. His technical mastery was recognized through numerous accolades, including medals from the Exposición Nacional de Bellas Artes for works such as El relojero, El cerero, Adán y Eva, and Cantores.
