| LEONARDO
M. GIRON
Having worked for more than 10 years as a textbook illustrator,
Leonardo has become accustom to doing a number of different
art styles and techniques. But he is most inclined to manga
style illustrations, gaining inspiration from many great Japanese
mangakas. This is evident in most of his work found in his
deviantart gallery - s2ka.deviantart.com.
He also works as a freelance comic book illustrator for an
independent comics publisher to further enhance his drawing
skills.
