Hi! I'm Sofi, and a few weeks ago I finished the 52 Weeks of Drawings Challenge.
The project was really special to me because it helped me get through a very rough time in my life (I was -and still am- living in another country, far away from my family and friends).
Also, thanks to it I met a bunch of incredible artists and landed my first commercial projects. Now I’m working on two children’s books and an animated short film series.

#3 Weird Superpower
A few days ago, talking about bizarre superpowers, we found out that a friend can eat enormous amounts of sweets without getting tired of it. I don’t really know if that’s a superpower, but I -that cannot do it- feel that’s an ability that must make your life a lot happier.

I used to have a this dream about a fox looking right at me, and days ago I found out that, in celtic mythology, the fox is a spiritual guide. I though it was a beautiful symbolism.

Maybe one of the most beautiful things in Buenos Aires is the sunset. I'm moving out soon, so I'm hoping our next apartment will have huge windows.

#13 Fairytale Character
My favorite part of The Little Red Riding Hood is when she makes the decision of taking the forbidden path. Not out of revelry, but because I feel mistakes are meant to be lived. And despite what happens in between, endings are always happy.

#18 Historical Figure
Thanks to Pierre Michaux, bikes have pedals. Before him, they were called "draisianas" and, despite the beautiful name, they were very unhelpful because you had to push yourself with your feet on the floor.
