José del Nido was born in Barcelona (Spain). I started to work as illustrator for more so 30 years. From the beginning, he has used almost all the techniques: oil, acrilics, watercolor, airbrush, etc. In the last years I use Corel Painter software too. He works for many publishing houses and advertising agencies from all over the world, as Bastei, Euraeditoriale, Norma, Planeta, Grupo Zeta, among others. Collaborations for products: Bollicao, Pacha, Star Beer, Vileda, Eroski, Ferry, Oraldine, Carte D’or, Magnum, Donut, Nenuco, Yamaha, etc..
