Hi! I'm Paula, I'm a 26 y.o. artist based in Madrid. I like scorching hot coffee, I study bugs and other creatures in my free time, and enjoy goblin-esque activities like collecting bones.

Biography

As a working artist, I like 2D animation and I'm specifically interested in Character Design and other Concept art departments. I have an English Literature degree but I decided to pursue an artistic career when I was 20. As almost every other artist I cannot remember a time when I wasn't drawing and creating, both to entertain my single child afternoons and to escape the dread of being in classes I didn't care for. I don't regret going to college for a non-artistic career, because I found out I loved stories, diving in the details, the context, the aesthetics. It inspired a lot of drawings in the margins of my college notes and I got serious about art while I was still at uni. With the last of my savings I got an Intuous Wacom and spent 8 hours drawing without getting up for food or bathroom breaks, and that's when I knew it was love. Not long after I got a Talent Scholarship at ESDIP, a big art school in Madrid, and I was able to get an education I couldn't have afforded otherwise. I squeezed every inch of knowledge out of my teachers and made sure to exploit every opportunity to get better. Right now I'm in my last year as a trainee for the School's animation studio, working on my first short movie, and beginning to look for job opportuinities for the near future. That includes a master course I'm taking on how to produce and publish comics, of course. After all, I try to be a jack of all trades.
