The Other Side Page 1 Espanol English


First page of "The Other Side", my first colored comic work based on a story I had written some years ago. This time I also wanted to try out a different style, with rough lines , a limited color pallette and flat colors. I will also be attempting to upload it in both languages, english and spanish, since I would like non-spanish speakers to be able to read my personal work as well .Please take into consideration the translation from spanish is not exact, but I tried to keep it as close as I could to the original meaning.
Tools: mechanical pencil (no inking) + photoshop+ tablet+ illustrator (for the bubbles).

Sueños de Papel Part 2


"Sueños de Papel" is a comic project started in the year 2010, the summer I left design university to follow full-time art studies. The thought that drove me the most to make the decision, was the fact that I had to fight for my dreams- as cliché and corny that might sound. What if one day I woke up with my whole life almost gone, only to realise I had never fought to achieve what I truly wanted? "Sueños de Papel" is about that feeling, about being in a life-turning point.

It was my first proper comic, and the first version can be found in this entry (http://rominasantanaart.blogspot.com/2011/12/suenos-de-papel-comic-pages.html) The first version was submitted for a local contest but it didn´t win. The more recent version (posted here) was submited for another contest in 2012. But it didn´t win either. That news were hard to swallow, but I´ve learned to let go of that bitterness. I think it`s important, to learn when things just don´t work and move on. And I´m not just talking about comics, it can be applied to any aspect of your life . You stand up again, and try. You fail. Try again. And again. There is always something new to create .

Chapter 1 of the second version of "Sueños de Papel"


















Tools: ink, black pen + photoshop, to adjust contrast levels+ illustrator for
lettering and bubbles.

Lost In London


Another piece for the fashion vector illustrations series. This time I decided to practise a little with male fashion, since it is generally less taken into consideration than female. Before doing this, I investigated a little about what being a dandy meant in past centuries, so I wanted to make a modern version of it, but still keeping it elegant and pay a lot of attention to small details.
