Jess Hutchison is an illustrator, avid knitter and author working primarily in textiles. We both share the fact we were born on Guam, frolicking on the beach as tots. How random is that? But I digress...

artist profile - Hernan Paganini
Hernán Paganini was born in Argentina in 1982, and studied graphic design at the University of Buenos Aires. As a busy creative, Hernán currently teaches at said university, works as a freelance illustrator, in addition to constantly developing his art.
His work is informed by his surroundings, and he keeps his mind open with a child-like view upon the world. An avid collector since childhood, Hernán would often use the objects found as material fodder, and inspiration, for others works. Hernán explores his environment, life moments and emotions, intersecting these discoveries into his art.
"Each material is a new world and language to discover."
