Adriano Janezic, illustrator, caricaturist and cartoonist
Adriano Janezic is one of the most promising young caricaturists and illustrators in Slovenia. He has an extraordinary sense of humor.
He is mostly occupied with illustrating children and juvenile books, but he also draws short comics and newspaper cartoon illustrations.
His illustrations adorn many children and juvelile books, periodicals and literary works. His comics are regularly published in one of the most read newspaper in Slovenia.
His works have not been exhibited frequently, they are much more seen in books, magazines and newspapers.
At the beginning...
He was born on August 19, 1972 in Ljubljana and now he lives in Postojna.
More about Ljubljana:
More about Postojna:
When he was younger his favorite books were Pippi Longstocking and a collection of fairy tales One Thousand and One Nights.
Once he would like to illustrate Pippi Longstocking himself.
More about Pippi Longstocking:
At school he prefered art class and English language. Professor of art education encouraged him to draw and sketch a lot and took part in the competitions. Two of his creations have been awarded.
In high school Adriano had severe problems with math, so he gave up and left school.
At that time he joined anarcho-pank movement and was listening to Crass, Conflict, Poison Girls. He still like this scene and this music.
What is anarcho-pank:
wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarcho-punk
Who are Crass:
Who are Poison Girls:
After a period of punk, he attended art school of Zmago Modic, where he was taught by Eric Milan, Kiar Mesko, Milan Butina and Stefan Planinc.
Who is Zmago Modic:
At that time he started with his first publications, in a local newspaper of town Kamnik he was publishing comics and cartoons.
More about Kamnik:
He doesn't like realism too much, Adriano prefers to be left to the imagination.
He loves the freedom to create, that no one dictates him what the characters must look like.
He has used watercolor, gouache, aquarelle and pencil. It is aquarelle and gouache that allow him to apply intense colors.
Illustration never seems good enough to him, before it is given to editors.
Again and again he discovers another little thing that bothers him and it could be repaired or improved.
But time presses and when he is in a real hurry, Adriano sits on his bike with illustrations or cartoons in a plastic briefcase and speeds to the editors, who are already eagerly waiting for his work.
Computer? Adriano doesn't like it very much. In his spare time he likes to read.
When he is not drawing or reading, he is devoted to cooking. Adriano is the master for the preparation of vegetarian dishes.

- Lobe the illustrations. They have clean lines and look simple and at the same time clearly express emotions. I still have an old issue of Pika Nogavicka from Biseri collection - and it always makes me smile... :)
