My name is Ana Montiel, am 27 and live in Barcelona, I work in different areas such as illustration, pattern design, graphic design, fashion, art, special editorial contents... always trying to keep myself as open to many disciplines as possible, trying new things to reach versatile and different results on my projects.

I write this blog as an inspirational diary, featuring a selection of things that blows my mind. This weblog also works as a showcase of my creative process where I upload drafts, and new ideas that helps me organize during it.

Am the co-founder and creative chief of a studio (together with my super business development partner Alex Bedoya) called Alan the Gallant.
As Alan we offer a wide range of services for art-sensitive companies and people with good taste in general. :)
Before we were known as itte studio, on those days we were working on more corporate projects (you can check them here), now we are more freestyle, experimental and happy. ;)

Also as Alan the Gallant we have created a pattern design brand called Pattern Tales®, created more than 120 different designs for the first volume only!
Now working on several thematic collections for next autumn.. stay tuned*

ATG is also launching a new e-shop called Gallant Tales to bring you fantastic and beautiful all-kind-of-things... from artist prints to doggy t-shirts. The shop is opening in September, if you want to receive an invitation for the e-vernissage (and enjoy special day offers) let us know, will be glad to be send you one.

Years ago, I was developing artistic projects as Colectivo Koleko together with Amaia Martin. We won 2 art prizes, produced several exhibitions and had a great time.
Now I'm working again on different art approaches as Ana Montiel and hopefully there will be some exhibitions and collaborations soon, I'll write about the updates on pop-pervert.com
I am always looking for art spaces and galleries to exhibit my work, as well as art collaboration submissions on art magazines, they are welcome! So if you are interested feel free to contact me.

Well, thanks for visiting and reading.
:)


ps: Oh! ...and the name Pop Pervert comes from my obsession with music and pop culture, I must confess that I am a total music addict, listening to new bands everyday and always researching further and further into many musical fields. Long live good music!
