I'm a Peruvian-Canadian illustrator based in Montreal. I graduated from Dawson College's program for Illustration & Design.
I specialize in editorial illustration as my art is very graphic and stylized. I use primarily traditional mediums such as gouache and watercolour, although I'm also comfortable with Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign.
Being originally from Peru, I take inspiration in the mystical and esoteric stories I grew up with. Many of them being either legends or ghost stories. I also have a big passion for the outdoors. Much of my free time is spent hiking trough the Canadian woods, which deeply inspires my art.
