A course by Antonia Reyes Montealegre
Antonia defines herself as an illustrator of nature. She has specialized in the representation of the Chilean flora and fauna, a natural paradise. Her relationship with nature has always stemmed from exploration, then from her studio, to interpret it artistically. She aspires to generate illustrations that transmit emotions and show the beauty of nature. All her work is done by hand, with pencils, watercolors, and paper.
The majority of her projects are self-managed, due to her passion for entwining illustrations with experiences, workshops, excursions, etc. She shares her work and discoveries on social media and on her website, which has become an illustrated blog.
