Diseño de mascota para el Casal Gavina

 Os presento a "Gavina", la mascota del Esplai-Casal de verano "La Gavina" en Cornellà de Llobregat, Barcelona.

Este verano la temática ha sido sobre Asia y me pidieron que diseñara a la mascota y la vistiera con atuendos típicos o similares a los asiáticos para imprimirla en camisetas.  También me he encargado del diseño en general y la elección de la tipografía. ¡Muy contenta de haber podido hacer este encargo para La Gavina! Gracias Pablito!!!  :)

Who are you and what do you do?

My name is Henar Villodres and I’m an artist, illustrator and actress based in Madrid, Spain. I mainly do freelance illustration work for various clients, and I also paint pictures and portraits for commission. As an actress I go by the stage name “Henar Jimenez”. I worked on the Spanish TV series “Con el culo al aire” for three seasons. I have also worked in the film A 3 metros sobre el cielo, and several short films. Also, in my free time, I’m part of a dance group that performs at charity galas.

What is your favorite medium?

I don’t have a favorite medium in particular. I work primarily with acrylics, but I also work with graphite, ink, watercolor, and Photoshop…I love to mix mediums. I believe that the medium mixing techniques helps me to better convey the idea and gives more richness to my work.

Where do you draw your inspiration from?

I try to draw inspiration from everything around me. But above all, nature is an inexhaustible, endless source of inspiration for me. Its light, its colors and its shapes trigger my imagination and makes me connect with my most authentic “self”.

Also, music inspires me very much. I like all kinds of music, but there is a singer/musician who inspires me more than anyone else: Eddie Vedder. I recognize that his voice and his music have touched me and helps me create.

What is your creative process?

When I have an idea, I start to develop it by doing sketches and color proofs to develop the idea, in order to find the most powerful way to convey the message or emotion I want to transmit. When I have decided on the format, composition and color, I begin to work.

Is there a specific theme/message/emotion you aim to evoke?

No. My pieces vary in terms of theme, message and emotion. It often depends on what the client wants. But sometimes, when I’m free to choose, it depends on whatever I feel, want to tell or express at the moment.

What motivates you to continue to create?

I need to be creative; it’s how I express myself. Whether through painting, acting, dancing or playing violin, it makes me feel good to create something. One of the things that motivates me most is that my work can reach people; that it can surprise them or touch them in some way…I think that is something very beautiful and, at the same time, difficult.

When you encounter creative blocks, what do you do to overcome them?

The main thing is to not get angry with the block. If you get upset with “him”, then the block gets bigger and more powerful. When I feel that I’m blocked, I try to take my mind off it and do things that enrich me like: looking at artwork by other artists, talking with people, dancing, listening to music, or watching a movie. All of this inspires me and clears my mind.

What are your thoughts on the future of art?

I believe that art is a clear reflection of society, and our society is evolving to be increasingly technological and digitized. On the one hand, this is positive for art because we are in the “image era” and now the creativity and innovation are beginning to have a more important role. The downside I see is that “traditional” art may disappear in the future. I hope that doesn’t happen.

Social networks are also in art’s future. Through social networks, artists can meet each other and communicate, regardless of where they live in the world. Being able to communicate easily favors artists tremendously because it allows us to learn, inspire, and help us share our art with others.

What is something you have had to learn on your own that you would like to pass on to the next Creative?

I still have much to learn, luckily. But, if there’s something I’m sure of, it is that for drawing, painting, acting, dancing, and creating in general, the fear of being wrong or doing things wrong is harmful–a double-edged weapon, which stifles your freshness and cuts off your wings of creativity.
Many times it is not an easy task for me, but we must have confidence in ourselves, explore, experiment and create without fear.
