What you see here is my sanctuary! It's my favourite space in my apartment, and where I spend most of my day together with my dog, Pato, who's named after the Spanish word for duck! It's actually a separate room in my apartment; it may not be particularly big, but it gets beautiful light in the mornings. Plus it's conveniently close to the kitchen for my sneaky chocolate walks.

I usually work with two screens and an iPad. The main screen usually has emails, briefings or references for the project I'm working on, while on the other screen I'll usually have YouTube or Netflix open with my favourite horror series and movies. Yes, despite my colourful and cool work, I'm a horror movie fanatic! My routine is very simple, and quite boring for what people expect from an artist! I usually wake up at 7.30am, have breakfast and go for a walk with Pato. Around 8.30am I'm back home ready to go to the gym. By 9.30-10am I'm usually in front of the computer and ready to start working.
