I was born in 1971 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
I studied the School of Fine Arts.
I had a lot of jobs, I worked in a hospital, a bank, and in a flower shop. I was waitress, babysitter, and also assistant of a writer. I also teaced drawing and painting. Now, I am a freelance illustrator. But, from always, and above all, I am working in what people call ?the art of being artist??all one life´s philosophy.
In the beginning of 1998, I started to be a professional painter. In 2002, I moved to Barcelona, and there I more and more enjoyed making illustrations. After 6 years away from home, now I´m back to Argentina, and I am still drawing and painting.
I made individual and group exhibitions, in galleries and other places. I participated in contests and art fairs and my works have been published on many different virtual and graphics platforms. My work is also part of several art collections.
The illustrations I make are mostly human characters or situations. They are made to be seen and read, "my things" or that of others... a world of possibilities. People say they are very feminine designs, but I believe that everyone, with a bit of sensitivity, can understand and enjoy (although sometimes they´re not so so convenient). These characters are sometimes ironic, or with humor, or have a great tenderness... like me. That mix inside me, or in every son of neighbor ? I am just drawing it.
