I am Dackmar Quiroz, a children's book illustrator based in the vibrant city of Quito, Ecuador, with a deep passion for infusing magic and color into the world of animals and fantastical creatures. Inspired by the joy of childhood and the inexhaustible beauty of nature, my creativity is also deeply nurtured by my personal connections with both people and animals. I seek to share my vision of the world through illustrations filled with brightness and joy, often working digitally with programs like Adobe Photoshop and Procreate to achieve the expressive textures of colored pencils and crayons. Exploring the unique personalities of my characters, informed by these meaningful relationships, is one of my greatest motivations, translating them into artworks that convey tenderness and fun. For me, each project is a labor of the heart, as illustration and drawing are a fundamental part of my identity.…I am Dackmar Quiroz, a children's book illustrator based in the vibrant city of Quito, Ecuador, with a deep passion for infusing magic and color into the world of animals and fantastical creatures.
