M & G: Does your favorite work you have done so far?
Fernando: My latest book: The amazing journey to the planet Dulce. (Thule editions). Jose Diaz, the editor called me one day and said he had seen some of my work and wanted to do a book. He asked me to submit an idea and then signed a contract.

Besides the character of the book is one of my children and we were doing the book together.

M & G: "or self-taught art studies?
Rachel I started almost by chance (and thanks to advice from a good friend) to study at an art school in my town, I was 2 years but could not finish. What I can say is that I went through school almost on tiptoe, as if anything was out there with me. And after a few years (bastantes!) started again to draw, paint, and little by little my relationship with paint was consolidated, almost accidentally and unavoidably.

M & G: What inspires you?
Rachel Opening your eyes, watching everything around me. Sometimes inspiration comes across a phrase, an image, a person specifically, a tree ... you're right, or you're sad ... I think anything can help inspire you, you only need to be fine tuned!
M & G: Tell us a little "what is the technique you use for your work?
Rachel Pinto with acrylics and most of the time on a good paper. Although sometimes I like to change and paint on wood, fabric, cardboard ... whatever!
Other times I use the collage, I had a great time with the "cut and paste" and looking for the perfect piece of paper that will fit and wear the drawing ... so my table is transformed into a chaos of papers: old prints, magazines, newspapers ... I am happy there in the middle!
M & G: Tell us one of your hobbies for your free time.
Rachel I like small things, enjoy my friends, I like being at home, read, sit around a table sharing a meal with people I love and travel!
