CLARA BONET
BIOGRAPHY

Since I was a child, drawing was something I was good at. So when I had the chance to choose what to study... that's where I went!

At first I wanted to be an illustrator of children's stories, but little by little I found a style in which

I felt more comfortable and which was far from my first ideal.

When I finished my illustration studies in Barcelona, I wanted to do something different and went to Madrid to study acting. For a while I combined my studies with acting, working on several projects such as 'Darkness' by Jaume Balagueró, Fausto 5.0' by La Fura dels Baus... among others.

But drawing always came before everything else... so some time later I ventured to try my hand at advertising design. At that time I was doing very different jobs, some that didn't require illustration, others where I had to invent a specific style... And although I learnt a lot, each time I got further and further away from creating my own style.

 

Then I decided to go freelance and try to make only pieces with my illustrations.

Little by little I reduced this endless creation of styles and focused on one specific style, my style :)
