Hello world!

This is my first blog ever, be patient I’ll learn as I go.

Let me introduce my sellf first.

My name is Natalia Taffarel, I’m from Argentina and my life is retouching. Becoming a Digital Artist was a natural progression for me. I have a background in Advertising and Graphic Design, and I was born in to a family of printers, therefore I grew up with a great understanding of colour theory and I learnt every method of traditional printing in side out.

I began learning Photoshop as a hobby, which quickly turned in to an obsession.
My printing background proved useful, as many of the filters that are used in the Photoshop are based on the analogue methods which aided in my understanding.
I have since become a Certified Adobe Expert, and built up a strong client base.

I find the retouching process an inspired way to take a good image and develop it in to something perfect, or to make a perfect image amazing.

I’m a neurotic, detail maniac, control freak who thinks beauty is shown solely through the details. Everything has a hidden beauty and it’s my job to unleash it.

I believe hard and constructive criticism is the only way of achieving continued self-improvement. I strive to be the best.

As you can see… I’m also modest!

 

I want to share my retouching experience with all of you out there that want to learn the craft. For those of you who haven’t seen my youtube video, enjoy wile I make new ones
