Valentina Ramos Renders Wildlife with Intricately Patterned Skin

— February 18, 2012 — Art & Design
Your eyes are in for a treat when you encounter a Valentina Ramos illustration. Not only does she render animals with extreme attention to accuracy, she then adorns her creatures with henna-like patterns which stimulate your eyes to no end. You know you’re in the presence of talent when someone can produce an image that provides audiences with two different viewing experiences when staring at a picture up-close and from afar. She also has a penchant for using vibrant colors, making it nearly impossible not to gravitate your eyes to her work when it’s in a room.

Valentina Ramos is a former graphic designer who’s currently undertaking arts and crafts projects. She has a studio in Miami, Florida, where, as described on her website, she spends, “countless happy hours playing with her paints and her Rapidograph Pens.”
