| Why Did You Become An Artist |
I was born in Don Bosco (province of Buenos Aires, Argentina) in May 15, 1972.
In my childhood awoke in me my love about to draw: I spent many hours drawing TV characters, specially the Hanna-Barbera cartoons (the Wacky Races at the top), but also of the humorous strips which through the years I was reading, such as Condorito, almost everything Disney's and some García Ferré's. Although Dante Quinterno's comics were the most influential to me: Patoruzú, Isidoro and Patoruzito were characters very familiars. I sketched them in many varied positions, but the most charming was about drawing the fight scenes.
In 1991 I started the Graphic Design career in the University of Buenos Aires, however in the following year I began to take drawing lessons. I was instructed in caricature, humorous drawing and comics, learning all the specialties in black and white and also in color. |
