A course by Patricia Escalante
Patricia Escalante studied painting at the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru. However, she spent 12 years of her career pursuing one of her other passions: graphic design. During that time, she worked with companies like Kerzen and Unique/Yanbal.
Now she is fully devoted to art and experiments with graphite drawing and other digital techniques. Much of her work focuses on portraits of artists and people she admires. Inspired by classic magazine graphics and black and white photography, Patricia explores the depth of portraits as an art form and depicts her figures in timeless spaces.
