Hi! My name is Carla :)
I'm a professional illustrator from the Philippines. It's a pleasure to meet you!
I studied Multimedia Arts at Asia Pacific College, where I began my career as a graphic designer before transitioning to a full-time illustrator.
My inspiration comes from childhood, evoking feelings of wonder, adventure, and playfulness. I primarily work with vector art but incorporate a bit of texture for a hand-drawn effect. Character design and storytelling are my favorite subjects to illustrate.
Through my art, I aspire to bring joy, love, and creative inspiration to children. I have a keen interest in picture books, board books, educational and non-fiction works, as well as designing products for children. I am currently seeking representation.
