Printmaking

8/5/2013

I just came back from Chile, I was visiting my family and decided to take a printmaking class. The experience was great and I had the opportunity to meet a few artists at Taller de Artes Visuales (TAV) which is managed by the friends of "La Pica del Grabado" - I did some Xylography, Reduction Woodcut and Chine Colle with my friends Marco Durán and Campana. Also I was able to chat with a very experienced printmaker, Mr. Carlos Donaire.
The workshop was great and the setup very nice and old school, it was great to be able to use the presses and the equipment at TAV, we managed the cold winter in Santiago with a small space-heater and the "mates" (a tipical hot drink) served by Campana.

    My Story

    I was born in Chile at the end of the 70's, so I went through the 80's listening to rock, watching movies, reading books and doodling all the time. 
    I studied advertising and moved to the United States in 2001. I live in Austin, Texas with my beautiful family.
    ​By day I work as a graphic designer, photographer and social media lead at Texas School for the Deaf. By night (and in any free time) I paint, draw, and write poetry.
    I currently volunteer as a Curator for la Peña Gallery in downtown Austin.
    Poison of choice: Coffee.
