He began his career heavily influenced by Juan de Juni, Gaspar Becerra and Esteban Jordan, who had worked in Medina de Rio Seco, so his work is considered a stylistic continuation of them. In Cuéllar, Pedro formed a very close professional relationship with the Maldonado Family (Julian and Gabriel), local painters who worked in much of the province of Segovia and the closest areas of Valladolid. He returned to Medina de Rio Seco where he died in 1595.
The sculptures thereafter were painted and decorated by the Maldonado family.
