Studio MA-EN
Talent Bio:
Enrique “Quique!” Lopez
Born to Cuban parents in Puerto Rico, Quique was always fascinated with telling stories. Writing from early age, he discovered comics and the love affair never wained. He tried to break into the industry during the 4 color days of the 80s with not much success so he dedicated himself to working in the advertising as creative and account director for a number of prestigious agencies such as Leo Burnett and BBDO where some of his campaigns won awards and honors. Once his daughter started to develop an interest in the visual arts, he felt the urge to return to his love of comics. Though mostly an inker, he still sketches and will spin a nice yarn if you ask nice. He is currently involved in a number of projects including a collection of stories set in a fantastical world which with the help of his artist friends should see the light of day late 2019 or early 2020. Recently was a finalist of the NJ Live Story Telling Contest from over 200 entries. Influences: Berni Wrightson, Terry Austin, Mike Grell, Neal Adams.
