A course by Ana Gomez Bernaus
Ana Gomez is a visual artist specializing in 3D. As a child, she loved to draw and wanted to be a painter growing up. She went on to study at design school in Barcelona where, in her final year, she was recommended for a job by her teacher. When her boss took a sabbatical year, she became the leader of the company at just 23 years old. After a few years of working in Barcelona, Ana moved to New York and later Los Angeles where she discovered a passion for 3D.
Since then she has worked on projects including Microsoft Originals, designed several covers for The L. A Times, and has been recognized by institutions like the Type Directors Club, Lürzer's Archive, and more. Ana currently works as an art director at Buck alongside working on freelance lettering-based projects for advertising and editorial clients.
