about me...

JUVENAL MARTINEZ 


Art is a crazy business, and that's exactly why I love it. I've been getting my hands into  it ever since I was old enough to hold a pencil, and draw.


 Nineteen seventy was the year that fate stepped in and my life as a illustrator was sealed. I ​joined the military service and my career as I knew it changed.  I entered the military so as to be able to get to art school.


Flash forward thru one unpopular war, and nine years.  I was accepted at the prestigious Art Center College of Design. Met some great friends and very talented people. My instructors were superb and the education first class.

 CHICAGO  - I have been working in Chicago since 1982.  I have worked with most of the consumer advertising agencies, and fair to say most of the pharmaceutical agencies too. I work in Illustrator, Photoshop, SketchBook Pro, After Effects, and Cinema 4D. I am also familiar withFinal Cut Pro; however,  my favorite tool is the pencil. The original hardware and my imagination as the software.  Pastels are my choice as far as  medium for doing personal work.
