Queospera: After a year of our first interview, you have a website that has over 80,000 hits, people all over the world write to you thanks to your art and you have been recognized as one of the top ten bondage artists at the 2004 Signys.  How does it feel?

Osvaldo A. Greco: Like a dream, I still do not believe it, ha, ha.  It feels wonderful, really, but it is also a heavy burden because it is also a responsibility about what I am doing now and in the future.

For many years you worked  with little interaction with the public.  Now that you spend a lot of time online and constantly receive comments from your fans, has any of that changed the way you work?

Yes, absolutely.  In general, the basics stay the same, but now I have a better idea of the preferences of others, which may not be necessary mine.  When I was alone doing my work I asked myself many times if someone would be interested or would they like what I was doing, thank God I found that they do!!!

You have been doing Gwen tales for many years, are you still excited to do Gwen comics?

As in the first day, I feel that the characters are so full of life and the possibilities for stories are so many that I hope to have the energy to do all the tales that I have in different states of completion.

Will Gwen ever untie herself?

No, poor one, she is hopeless, and I suspect she does not want to...

In The Damsels Zoo you did many drawings of girls transformed into animals thanks to elaborate costumes that trapped them.  Tell us how was that creative process.  Did you check out many animals photos for reference?

Yes I did, when I am going to do special costumes I try to research first to incorporate the best about the dresses I have to design.  For this story I sketched over 100 costumes but I had to slow down the amount because of the story or it would have been a Halloween catalog.  Ha, ha, ha!

So I selected the most glamorous animals for the most glamorous costumes, the rest is paper and ink.
