Jean Zapata

Originally my work reflects among the picture, the drawing, the painting and illustration. My likes for the art and for the photographic portrait they are visible in that I make. I adore the flamenco painters. My influence favorite contemporary is the painting and the drawing of Jeffrey Jones, Jeremy Lipking, Barry Windsor Smith, the Hanuka brothers. However, bases myself and work in a lot on friends, drawings, neighbors, pictures of my neighborhood and many things that they speak of my own context.

Jean Zapata's art

I am a student of final of career in plastic arts in Bogotá, Colombia. I have 27 years, a dog, a collection of soccer balls. I like to play cards, to bet strong, to take a risk and to build things. I work to creative in different companies of publicity in my country and I am also drawing of comics (next to be published). I like to read, to speak with people, to build looks and to relate new imaginary.For six years I am devoted to the art and the illustration, I have drawn from very young, but he/she took it as a hobbie, already studying my new career - first he/she studies linguistics -, let us concentrate a lot on the sense of my images and of my ideas without thinking a lot of the means, alone in the concepts, so I make painting, digital works, watercolor, drawing to pencil and many things that little by little they help me aentender my own sensibility.
