Hello seniorita polyester and thank you for doing this interview with Colovision Magazine.

1 – To Start, tellus a bit about yourself where you were born and where you live…

Well, I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina… but currently i’m living and working in San JosÈ, Costa Rica.

2 – How did you get started in the arts?

I studied Graphic Design in “Universidad de Buenos Aires”. I didn’t finished because i got bored, even though I had just one asignature left :P

3-  Where do yo draw your inspiration from?

Too much movies, music, sinister people and photos, japanese people, old magazines, other illustrators works, spending time alone, Reader.

4-  Can you describe for us what a regular day is like for you?

I wake up late, like 11 am (is very hard to me to wake up in the mornings!), then i drink some tea and check my emails and my reader. Then i try to make the things on my “To Do” list.

5-  What is your most common approach for completing a project?

I’m very messy. First i have truoble in getting my ideas into reality. Then i make some crappy sketches on my notebook and when is ready i work the drawing in vectors.

Because i’m very impatient, the only thingh i want is to finish really quickly, but i never get it, because i’m also very perfectionist.

6-  Out of all your work what is your favorite piece and why?

I don’t have any favourite piece (in fact, i’m not 100% happy with all of them hahaha).

7-  Is it easy to make a living in the work that you do?

Is not easy. Work as a “freelancer” require too much dedication, effort and organization, but this is what i like so i’m very happy with that.

8-  Who is your biggest influence?

Eduardo Recife, Mark Ryden, Elsa Mora, Richard Colman, Diane Arbus, Takato Yamamoto and many more people.

9-  How important is technology for the work that you do? What tools could you not live with out?

Is very important, i coudn’t live without Photoshop and some vector program. Also I couldn’t live without internet access. Internet saves.

10- How important is color in your work and why?

Color is one of the most important things in any illustration. I really like to work with few colors, i like to think that color comunicate all the feelings i put on my illustrations.

11- Whats your favorite color?

Black and grey.
