Argentine illustrator Juan Perednik has been drawing for as long as he can remember and it is one of the things he most enjoys in life. For him, every drawing is a brand new experience, a challenge, and the truest artistic technique for expressing emotions.

This gave him the visibility he needed to grow his now extensive community, made up of fans who admire and follow each of his new creations through his social media.
