Hi, I'm Javier, an illustrator from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I was born on May 6, 1986, in Monte Grande, and from a young age I've been involved in various artistic languages and disciplines: drawing, comics, 2D animation, writing, painting, and visual arts.
Over the years, I've studied in a wide variety of workshops and schools: with Guillermo Roux, Darío Zana, at El Sótano Blanco with Juan Bobillo and Marcelo Sosa, at the Argentine School of Comics, as well as at the Da Vinci School, and a few years ago, visual arts at UNA (National University of the Arts). This mix of places and teachers has given me a broad and very practical background.
I've worked as an illustrator for several publications and magazines, but mainly for audiovisual production companies, doing character design, illustration, traditional animation, and concept art. Today, I'm deepening my path in the visual arts, finishing my thesis, and focusing on building a solid and unique artistic identity.

Description: A mashup of two universes that shaped my childhood: Akira and The Ren & Stimpy Show. A Drawing exercise and, above all, a playful exploration of the idea that these two seemingly incompatible worlds could perfectly coexist in a parallel reality.
