Illustration of stories with paper
“Thank you very much for choosing my course and for getting here! I am very happy to share this that I love so much with you. In this video there is a summary of everything we learned and shared. I hope you liked it and enjoyed the road very much. I wish I could convey some of the love I feel for collage, for telling stories, for books, for colored papers and, better yet, if I gave you the desire to experiment, to create, to play, to look at what surrounds you with fascination, to share experiences and to express yourself through this universal and powerful language. The resources and tools we learned in the course will serve you for any editorial or illustration project. This is just a guide, maybe in doing do you find other ways to solve the same things. Be patient and do not become obsessed with a certain result. Each one will have their own voice and will be unique, personal, different from the rest and that is wonderful. That voice and that style that we are looking for so much will appear without doubts in the sustained doing. So keep cutting! Don’t forget to share your final project, and if you want you can post it on Instagram. Use the hashtag #EstrellitaCaracolDomestika. See you on the forum! ”
