My name is Marco and I was born and raised in Costa Rica, a natural paradise full of ecological richness and beautiful people. Now I live in Minnesota, USA. I've painted and drawn since I can remember, but never took it very seriously, until the last 5 years or so!!!
I also studied some photography, but it's really hard to find a photography job in Costa Rica, unless you know the right people or have the right last name... Well what can I say!!! Costa Rica is a Collectivist culture =).
My job demands lots of drawing,(by the way I'm a professional tattoo artist!!!) so in my spare time I paint do some photography and I like to experiment with some sculpting as well.
I like to make jewelry, work a little bit with leather, make my own tattoo machines, and I'm a musician also (www.youtube.com/user/mvaguero)!!!
Is not that i like to brag about all the stuff I do, but I've had to deal with depression my whole life; so keeping my mind busy is one of the things that helps me deal with that,(I'm not gonna take pills!!! and that's a statement).
So anyways I'm really happy with the input I'm getting trough this website; and is very inspiring to see the amazing work that is showcased around here!!!
So everybody keep the good work!!! and have lots of fun!
