Juan Díaz Canales (born in 1972 in Madrid, Spain) is a Spanish comics artist and an animated film director, known as the co-creator of "Blacksad".

Biography

At an early age, Juan Díaz Canales became interested in comics and their creation, which progressed and broadened out to include animated films. At the age of 18, he entered a school for animation. In 1996 he founded, together with three other artists, a company called Tridente Animation. Through this, he has worked with European and American companies, providing plots and scripts for comics and animation films, as well as directing animated television series and animation movies.

During this period he met Juanjo Guarnido, with whom Canales decided to create comics based around a private investigator, Blacksad. After contacting several editors, Guarnido and Canales finally signed on with French publisher Dargaud, and in November 2000, "Quelque part entre les ombres (Somewhere within the Shadows)" was published.Cite web|last=Lambiek Comiclopedia|title= Juanjo Guarnido |url=http://lambiek.net/artists/g/guarnido_juanjo.htm] It was a great success with both critics and the public, and was awarded the Prix de la Découverte at the Sierre International Comics Festival and the "Avenir" Prize at the Lys-lez-Lannoy Festival, in Switzerland and France respectively. In March 2003 the second album "Arctic-Nation", was released. It was once again a great success, winning the Angoulême Audience Award and the Festival Prize for Artwork in 2004. The third instalment of the "Blacksad" series, "Âme Rouge (Red Soul)", was published in 2005, concluding the trilogy. In 2006 it was awarded the Angoulême Prize for a Series.
