Who are you and what do you do?

My name is Dylan Quinn, I’m 23, I’m from Dublin, Ireland and currently studying Fine Art at the National College of Art and Design in Dublin.

What is your preferred medium and/or method? Why?

I prefer to work digitally using a combination of Photoshop CS5 and a Wacom Tablet. I like working this way because it is very convenient, requires less space/materials than working traditionally and doesn't create the mess that working with paint would.

Would you like to introduce yourself? I am Mohamed Raoof And I am a serious hobbyist, Currently I do work as an Application designer. I am from India and I live in state Kerala (gods own country). I completed my Computer Science engineering degree in 2012, and I currently work in company Softhues.

Would you like to introduce yourself?

I'm Kirk Quilaquil, a freelance illustrator and concept artist. I'm from England, Hertfordshire. I'm originally from the Philippines but then moved to England when I was 13 and spent all my teenage years here in England since then I've graduated from the University of Bedfordshire, a major of BA (hons) Animation degree. I like to draw different types of subjects, but I’d like to see myself doing character designs, landscape and doing fantasy themes, much prefer doing them.

Would you like to introduce yourself?

Sure my name is Eva Senín Pernas and I´m a girl born in La Coruña, a little city of Galicia (Spain). Since I was a child, I loved the architecture, and that is why I studied interior architecture at the university. On the other hand I've always had a passion for photography. The last year I decided to make one of my dreams come true and I became a make-up artist. I've always loved makeup and all that involves it. So this is now the main theme of my photography.

Welcome to the relaunch of Artistic Figure 8's! Some of you may have stumbled over from the original idea of the site back on Blogger. The idea is pretty simple I am an artist & I enjoy art and being introduced to new and talented artist. Now I did a little looking around the internet and I didn't really come up with anything that did just that so I decided to make a blog that I would want to read.

Now this is a relaunch so I'm sure your wondering what happened to the original? Well lets just say that I wasn't so good with keeping it up to date and I sorta lost a bit of the direction I wanted to go with it.

HOWEVER! I did a lot of thinking and have come up with a whole new format for Artistic Figure 8s. Instead of simply finding an artist and posting some work with links & my random ramblings about it, I am actually going to do small interviews with them that I hope will not only be informative but entertaining!
