Empire State through the cherry blossoms Painting

My name is Natalia Francisco and I am a painter and illustrator living in Spain. I work with digital techniques, like Adobe Photoshop, and traditional painting techniques as watercolor, gouache or acrylics. I graduated in Fine Arts in the University of Murcia and completed a Master’s Degree in Art Education in 2010. Since then I have dedicated a large part of my time to teaching art and audiovisual media in several workshops and secondary schools. I have combined my career in teaching with art creation, selling my paintings and illustrations to private local clients. Now I am focused on taking a further step as a professional and receive commissions. Constantly learning, in 2019 I completed a Specialization Course in Graphic Design by CALARTS (California Institute of the Arts). I am exploring the possibilities of digital painting, investigating its combination with traditional techniques in different parts of my creative process. In my free time I am also learning digital photography and video edition. Besides that, I am taking a course with illustrator Gemma Román to further my skills in Adobe Photoshop.
