Mateo Vullo // Illustrator
pixeleye, 18:34h
"Yes, my name is Vullo. No, it's not a pseudo, it's really my last name! My first name is Mathieu... Mateo or Mat. It's up to you!
I was born in La Rochelle (Charente-Maritime, France) in 1971 and I have been drawing since the early and tender years of grammar school... So many many years ago!...
Since childhood, my imagination has been full of little figures, parking lots full of cars and scooters, herds of animals as well as whimsical things that have ended up on paper... or on wooden school desks...
In the early 90's, when I was "wracking my brain" for logos at an advertising agency, I met a mouse. A computer mouse. We immediatly became partners and have not parted ever since. Since then, my pencils only work part-time and my consumption of paper has pretty much come to an end. It makes me feel much less responsible for deforestation!
Since 2005, I have launched my career as an independent artist working not only on exhibitions but also illustrating for magazines, companies, associations and individuals."
