This time I'm going to talk about two illustrators and their works. They are Alberto Montt and Francisco
Olea. Both of them are chilean.
I want to talk about them because I love their creations. They consist in short comic strips covering topics like social criticism, love, everyday situations, etc.
Alberto Montt was born in Ecuador. Also, he studied graphic design and plastic arts in that country. But now, he lives and works in Chile: like I said before, he has chilean nationality, he acquired because his father (Alberto Montt) is chilean. He has worked drawing illustrations for newspapers , tales and books. His most important and famous work is "Dosis Diarias". This short comic strips usually are satirical and critical. They have many cultural references.
Francisco Olea is a graphic designer too. He has worked in the same kind of jobs, obviusly. He has published two books (I don't remember this exactly): "Manual de estilo" and "Mal de amores". I think that his creations are great. In "Oleísmos" (he use this name for his works) we can find nostalgia, love, sadness, humor in a delicate way.
Here I leave two links if you want to visit their pages and know more about them
