Who?
Arturo Elena

What do you do for a living?
Illustrator, mainly of fashion.

Talk us through a day in the life of you..
I wake up early. When I arrive to my studio, I play music and straight away I start working, first I check all my emails and then I start drawing. I also spend quite a lot of time talking with my clients and in Skype talking to Sara, my agent based in London. In the afternoon, after a small ‘siesta’ (I do this always) I continue working or I go out for meetings. The last hours of the day I normally dedicate it to my personal life.

What….

Makes you cross?
The lack of honesty and proffesionality.





Makes you happy?
Being able to live from doing what I like the most : illustration and fashion.

The last thing that you have bought?
A perfume for my mum.
