A course by Andres Marti
Andrés Marti is a Colombian artist and designer, cofounder and director of Comes Cake Image Lab, art director of Click Clack Hotel and drag queen from the Mis Amigas Drag collective.
In his portraits, in which collage features heavily, he mixes makeup with post-production, natural light with artificial, and real elements with digital ones. With his photographic project Otredad, he seeks to find himself by portraying other people in a melancholic and surrealist way.
His work has been exhibited in different spaces and platforms in Bogota, London, Tokyo, and Madrid.

El curso es original y el retoque aplicado es muy didáctico si bien a veces hace cosas que no explica y es una lástima.

Tiene buenos tips y buenas ideas del manejo de capas, a pesar de que el profesor habla muy bajo y de pronto se pierde en pasos que (supongo) ajusta en su mente y hay silencios muy prolongados, lo que hace el curso poco dinámico. pero para alguien que inicia le ayudará bastante
