Brief Bio: I was born in San Antonio , Chile and raised in Santiago (the capital) until I got 15 years old. Then I back to my roots where all my family is and where I'm now.
Since I was a child I used to draw from walls , furnitures...till I meet the paper...^^. My first memories of drawing where spaceships of Star Wars...o_o, then I grew up with all the anime shows that opened my mind and the way I could see the whole world.

I grew up with Astroboy, Robotech, Saint Seiya (and the list it's too long...) along with videogmes...particularly with Street Fighter...even the Mutant Turtles...anyway, my likes were in search of manga and so I became a fanatic... But I discovered the comics here in my country were so few and so expensives to get...that I got fustrated ...so I started making my own stories when I was 12 years or something.

Before the manga culture I was fascinated with mytical creatures and horror type of movies... the years of Jason and Freddy and others likes An american Werewolf in Lond ..shocked me...and of course sci-fi type of movies like Robocop, Terminator , Superman, Back to the Future and such made of me a fan of all that kind of things at same I used to play a lot of videogames. So I began doing some action comics for me... they sucked a lot! XD

I was drawing for real... doing fan arts as an special hobby when I was 11 years old.With 19 years I met the internet (1997) and so my mind was opened again...not too long till I meet a community of art and friends who were doing draws just like myself, promoting his skills and sharing their drawings, so I began with the idea of making a website...

There was some poeple who were real good talents andI did some friends who are still with me. But I couldn't publish.

1998- Out of school I started my first career :Graphic Design. I was playing with my ideas and "Luna" appeared in a paper (that time I called her "Lupina")...a werewolf girl, with great "kame hame ha- powers" and a black suit as an american super-hero.... big sucks!...but the character was some of my likes, a woman and a werewolf: all in one. I went back to the internet again when I got my first personal pc at home XD in 1999.

And no... I couldn't become an artist student, because Chile isn't a country where you can live doing that. But with Design I learned enoguh and I made some websites and such in the past, with some friends we made an anime group and we created a big communituy of fans in my town... there are some story there and here...but the time passed doing all that and time to time I went back with the werewolf-girl idea chaging the story and doing more characters more than once. I made the comic about 3 times before this...because I got tired, my draw changed drastically in the process or the story sucked...:P.

Since 2001 and today I worked as a computer lab teacher. And so as an spine ...as dream that I had once "beign a comic artist" my soul cried when I realized that I was getting too old and there was a comic who I wanted to do once... and I needed to do it. This comic...no matter if it sound selfish, it's for me, to prove to myself that I could. And of course for the people who looked me as an artist too.

But I always will look to the art of me as a hobby as my story, no more .If I've show all my art all this time it's for share some of my feelings, that memory of my art-life I think will remain. Meanwhile I hope you be with me, sharing ...the journey of Luna and your fellow ,

Leo.
