We work at YOUR SPEED! 

​Every Artist is different in their approach to art and creates at a different speed. Artists also learn at a different pace, so Vector Maestros Sessions are organized to share information and learning into small 2 hour blocks of time.

The information starts at the point where your questions begin. Then spend some time with the Homework and come back when ready, no time limits, no deadlines.

THE MAESTRO

Picture
DTM
I am DTM aka Dan Flores and I am a Vector Maestro. I have been drawing with pencils and paper for my whole life and then as a professional artist, I discovered the power of Adobe Illustrator (my favorite app!) and it has allowed me to create art for web and print.

My design and illustration clients like Elmer's Glue, Microsoft, Adobe and Coca Cola require vector art so they can use my  Character Art and Illustration for projects that range from Animation, Video Game Art and Comics plus Art Installations that span over 26 feet in length. 

Vector Maestros is my mission to share my 20 year Vector Art knowledge with artists of all levels. My goal is to teach vector art fundamentals and grow the art biz of artists who wish to build their professional art career.
