I'm Carmen Gorosito, my nickname is C*Ligeia. I'm Illustrator and graphic designer

Biography

I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I studied Graphic Design at the University of Buenos Aires; then I specialized in illustration. I'm a lover of horror, occult, mystery and science fiction. I consider that my visual language is varied, but I'm interested in conceptual illustration. I do a lot of investigation before each illustration (maybe sometimes too much), and I tend to concentrate very much on details. My way of working is usually traditional: pencils, gouaches, etc. and then I digitise. But I also like to make vector illustrations with Adobe Illustrator and then give them some warmth with handmade retouching. I have done several jobs as an illustrator: murals, advertising, cards, collaborations in magazines and editorial projects. I am currently working freelance for an audiovisual production company that makes educational videos, but I was looking for a change for a salary more in line with my skills.
