About Carmen Merino
www.carmenmerino.com
I began my career in the world of
Graphic Design as artist sketches and illustrator.
In 2007 I started painting as an amateur and gradually
painting has been gaining more importance in my life.
One comes back with great satisfaction
their origins ...
I often find in my paintings Live Trace
agile and gave me those wonderful
Pantone markers.
At present I combine these two activities.
