The illustrations
I get the "how can I draw stuff like yours!" question a lot, so ima clear that up a bit see if I can help you out.
I've been drawing since I was very little, and I can say you
could tell from an early age that I was somewhat good at it. Now, being that said, I dont believe you have to be a great illustrator in order to make appealing art. How's that? well, I believe with a little bit of practice, a little bit of technique, and lots of watching great artists, you can achieve decent appealing artwork, without being Stan Lee.
Its all really about practice, open up your photoshop or your illustrator, and just start using it, try looking for simple cool tutorials on the net, but dont stop there, surf around the software yourself, after a while you may be surprised of how many things you've learned. Go through accomplished artist's galleries and really observe their work. Be inspired by them, but always try to come up with your own stuff, to create your own style. And, last but not least, dont be afraid to ask, I have to admit I get a little annoyed when I get the same question 10 times in my inbox, but asking others, was very helpfull (and still is) for me to learn.
A little more about me
Ooh, lets see... I am argentinean, and I am currently living in Italy with my hubby, he plays bball out here (yes people there is a league in italy, a huge one) but Im only staying 'til march, then I have to go back to Buenos Aires (ARG) to finish school (1 more year to go) and also run the business a bit, the studio that is.
I love working out and running. Love dogs, dont have my own, but I have a kitten back at home, his name is Indio and he's the sweetest thing in the world. I live off of salads and carrot juice. Love chewing gum, and absolutely love PINK always have, always will...
And as for less shallow stuff...what Ive learned from my short life period is that everything I go through good, bad, it all has a reason, a bigger porpose that is beyond my eyes and my understanding. Looking back I know I never received more than I could take. And I am what Ive lived 'til now. Everything. The good, the bad, the sweet, the bitter, my triumphs, my failures. I can do nothing but learn, 'til the day I leave, and maybe then...start over.
I sense '08 is going to be a special year :)
