ArtzMania + Catalizado – Latinamerican Flavor


 

The guys over at the great Artzmania in collaboration with Catalizado have just released the latinamerican issue of this amazing magazine.
 
This special release has even more flavor to it at least for me because I’m in it. Some time ago I sent in a sample of my works fand luckily I got selected to be on the magazine.
 
A great honor to be in such a huge magazine and along side great names such as Adhemas Batista or Claudio Limón.
 
You can download the issue here.

OblongoMag vol. 1


 

Exactly one week ago, Pablo Coatts, the mind behind spanish-speaking e-zine OblongoMag asked Victor Fernández, Claudio Araos and who’s writing to become a part of the e-zine’s regular staff.
 
With great enthusiasm we accepted the challenge and today finally, after a lot of work we’ve released to the public OblongoMag’s official website, the blog, and issue number 1 of the electronic magazine.
 
You can download issue number 0 as well as the all new issue number 1, and without a doubt I leave you an invitation to check out the website I mounted entirely from the ground up and that has me really quite satisfied.
 
I’d enormously appreciate any kind of feedback on the e-zine, the website or the overall content.
 
Greetings to all of you wandering around here.
