About

Hi, I’m Isabella De Mingo, a creative and motivated illustrator with a strong passion for books, visual storytelling, and character creation. I’ve recently completed my HND in Illustration & Design and bring experience from diverse backgrounds including art, hospitality, and education.

I enjoy working with both digital and traditional illustration methods and have a solid understanding of graphic and web design. I’m driven to transition into the creative or literary sector, where I can combine my love for storytelling with my design skills.
