| Introduction | I have been drawing everyday since January 2009 in order to improve my skills. Most of my drawings are more portraits than caricatures, but I think that's the process, maybe someday I'll do good caricatures. What I do now is I look for a good ref pic in the web, then I draw in pencil making as many corrections as I need, then I draw in ink and finally I apply color pastels. I still need to practice a lot more to improve exageration and humor in my drawings. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ He dibujado a diario desde enero de 2009. Mis dibujos son más retratos que caricaturas pero creo que ese es el proceso y que algún día podré hacerlas. Ahora lo que hago es buscar las fotos de referencia, hacer el dibujo en lápiz para corregirlo, luego en tinta y por último aplico pasteles de color. Todavía quiero exagerar más y aumentar el humor en mis dibujos. María Cristina Hernández Ariza, Julio 8 de 2011 |

When your science teacher smashed a frozen rose with a hammer, did you warm the petals to bring them back to life?
No, but I left that class, since any teacher who slams a rose with a hammer is a dumb ass.
