He is a painter and sculptor who has also forayed successfully into illustration〔Mejía's sculpted caricature work for ''Mad'' magazine include the "Iraq War Chess Set" in issue #473 (January 2007) and the O.J.

==Early life==
Hermann Mejía started drawing at a very young age. His explorations and his virtuoso drawing abilities took him to studying illustration and painting, and to the development of expression and character creation. His early influences on comics began with ''MAD Magazine'', that had made their way to Venezuela from the United States in the early eighties. He was an avid fan, although he spoke no English at the time. He cites artists Sergio Aragonés (author of the wordless ''Groo the Wanderer'' strip) and Mort Drucker as favorites. He started collecting comics at age 13, and received his first artist's commission at 15, painting promotional graffiti for musical acts in Caracas. He studied at the Caracas Design Institute ((Instituto de Diseño de Caracas )). After graduating, he started his career in the fine arts with numerous exhibitions in his native Venezuela, both collective and solo. His arts career was always combined with forays into different media and segments in commercial art. Growing recognition as a vanguard artist landed him the commission to design a series of Venezuelan postage stamps commemorating Pope John Paul II in 1996.〔
