ABOUT THE ARTIST
Mentiradeloro (Esther Cuesta de la Mata, 1987) began her career as an illustrator in 2010. In her early years as an artist, her pictorial work was essentially autobiographical, being her main aim to capture her feelings, concerns and her peculiar way of understanding and conceiving the world.
Currently, apart from being focused on the development of her own universe and creating countless commissioned portraits, she works as a freelance illustrator carrying out projects for clients from very different sectors and countries.
She received commissions from the award-winning video game publisher Bethesda Softworks LLC, the prestigious creator of series such as The Elder Scrolls and Fallout. She has made illustrations for a renowned wildlife documentaries producer and she has worked for different publishers and both Spanish and international companies. She has also illustrated several music album covers and accepted commissions from different public institutions.
She has a special predilection for traditional techniques, although she often combines them with digital ones. Her working tools range from brushes to tattoo needles, including a wide range of materials. She is passionate about experimenting, mixing and discovering new combinations.
