Gàieta Teixidó i Musach was born in Calella, Barcelona, in 1930. At an early age, he showed an aptitude and an interest in drawing and painting.

At the age of 10, he took his first lessons at Escuelas Pias in his hometown. At 14, he moved to Barcelona, where he entered the Llotja School of Fine Arts and also attended a private drawing and painting academy.
