Partial transcription of the video

“In this lesson I will show you how to create the spots and then scan them or digitize to turn them into brushes that simulate digital watercolor. Let's go to it. The first that I will use are the anilines, which are liquid watercolor. I'm going to take the color black. Keep in mind that I will use different colors but when scanning and converting into digital watercolor it is indifferent the color you use, because we will transform everything in black and white .

Painter and illustrator

The passion that Ricard López—better known as Ricardilus—has for drawing started when he was three years old and was constantly surrounded by pencils, crayons, and coloring books, but the decision to focus on illustration as a career only arose when he began studying art at the age of 16.

He spent one year pursuing a university degree in fine art. He later began higher-level vocational training in animation and 3D at EASD Pau Gargallo, as he was always attracted to the idea of bringing his drawings to life. During that time, he alternated classes with different illustration courses and finished up his degree with an animated short film ("La Folie"), for which he has received awards and recognition in different renowned competitions. The following year, he enrolled in Graphic Arts at the Escuela Joso de Barcelona, from which he graduated in 2017. He currently focuses only on illustration, alternating all kinds of projects with different art courses.

His illustrations are based on the female figure, but he is a faithful believer that a good illustrator should never get stuck in a single style, so he tries to discover new worlds and techniques every day. This has opened the doors to working with clients such as Penguin Random House and Editorial Planeta, TSL Jewellery in Hong Kong, Joyería Suárez, and SofarSounds, as well as the Museo Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (MNAC), among others.
