Let me introduce myself in a few words.
  • My favorite numer is 7, and my color is black, eventhough I barely use it in my illustrations. I use vibrant and instense colours.

  • I work fast, and I am always trying to make my clients happy. I don’t like to force my criteria in the proyects, although I guide and give advice when necesary.

  • I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Economics, and I worked as an IT consultant for many years, but a long time ago I quit and switch to graphic design and illustration, my true passions.

  • I live in Madrid (Spain) with my husband, my three children and my dog.

  • I enjoy enormously the process of transformation from ideas to illustrations.

  • I often take Design and Art courses and Master’s Degrees.

  • I love working on details, research and planning to get the job done within the set deadline.

  • I lived in USA with my family for 5 years.

  • I give a lot of importance to the concept and story the client wants to tell. I look for illustrations that make sense.

  • I fancy soups and stews dishes, specially my mom´s.

  • I love design, art and fashion.

  • Being alone doesn’t fell unconfortable to me. In fact, I need a little bit of solitude every day to recharge my batteries in order to being a great team worker.

  • If you are looking for me, you would probably find me at home working, walking my dog in the forest, or in Madrid, watching an exhibition, looking for gluten free restaurants or doing some sightseeing.

  • I have tried several drawing/painting techniques, but I stick to digital illustration, due to its speed and versatility. I mainly use Photoshop eventhough sometimes I use illustrator too.
