Bernat
Marroiak is an artist located in the south of Valencia specialized in handmade illustration.
At the highest level
Since last February 17, we have sold 93 original pieces through the Clandestine Auctions. And when I say originals, I mean 93 unique works of art, no prints or limited editions.
If we continue at this rate, the projection for the end of the year will place us at around 600 works Originals sold. It's a very high turnover volume.
Very, very tall.
The other day I started comparing it to the European art market and it would look like this...

How to prevent perfectionism from killing your creativity
There is a tool that I introduced some time ago in the workshop that is giving me very good results. Maybe it will help you too.

Not even for free
A friend recently told me that he would not be going to India not even for free. I didn't understand going to a country to suffer.
I love it.
